Los Santos Ángeles de Guevavi, established in 1691 by Jesuit Fathers Kino and Salvatierra, was one of the earliest Spanish missions in Arizona. It served as a district headquarters from 1701, with Father Juan de San Martin as the first resident priest. Over the years, the priests and residents faced hardships like disease, Apache raids, and the Pima revolt, a well-coordinated attack on Spanish missions and settlements by O'odham rebels in 1751. Despite efforts to sustain the mission, it was eventually abandoned in 1775. Its ruins were incorporated into Tumacácori National Historical Park in 1990, and were donated by Ralph Wingfield and preserved by the Archaeological Conservancy.
