Taken from Wikipedia, "Mission Nuestra Señora de la Soledad, known colloquially as the Soledad Mission or Mission Soledad, is a Spanish mission located near the present-day town of Soledad, California. The mission was founded by the Franciscan order on October 9, 1791 to convert the Native Americans living in the area to Catholicism. It was the thirteenth of California's Spanish missions, and is named for Mary, Our Lady of Solitude. The town of Soledad is named for the mission."
"Right on this road 1 m. to the junction with a paved road; R. here 2 m. to the crumbing, roofless must walls in vacant lonely fields of Mission de Nuestra Señora de la Soledad (Our Lady of Solitude), whose founders named it more fittingly than they knew."
