Juan Murrieta inspired the name Murrieta. Juan, a sheep herder from Spain, moved to Temecula Valley in 1873 and owned 52,000 acres before selling them in 1884. Joaquin Murrieta was baptized in Sonora, Mexico, in 1830; while still a teenager, he married and moved to California with his wife (1848). He tried prospecting during the Gold Rush, as did thousands of other immigrant Sonorans.
