Mission San José de Tumacácori, founded by Jesuit Father Eusebio Francisco Kino in January 1691, was originally established as Mission San Cayetano del Tumacácori on the east side of the Santa Cruz River. Like most of these remote missions in the 15th century, they were remote and by necessity self-sufficient; the mission was surrounded by irrigated agricultural land and a village of indigenous people who converted to Christianity. After an O'odham rebellion in 1751, the mission was relocated and renamed on the west side of the river. In 1768 all Jesuits, the religious order who founded the mission, were expelled from Mexico and it was taken over by Franciscans. The mission was officially abandoned in 1843 and incorporated into Tumacácori National Historical Park in 1908.
