FOXEN FATHER:
A) Posted 16 Apr 2015 by clnjjens (ancestry.com)
The name Foxen is derived from the family descended from Benjamin Foxen, a founder of santa Barbera, who purportedly convinced freemont to bypass Gaviotta in the California Mexican War in 1846.
So the family lore goes, Juan's mother was a servant in the Foxen house and had three children by Foxen. Aparently Juan had red hair just like some of the other Foxen men adding fodder to the story.

B) Per descendent J. Lorenzana, 1 Jun 2016 (e-mail correspondence)
Juan Garcia was the result of A Foxen (Santa Inez area) and Dominga Garcia, a housemaid. He sired 3 children by Dominga. As a young man, he ran away from the Foxen household and used the surname of his mother GARCIA.

Juan married RUIZ, Juana Amelina "Jennie" 20 Feb 1905, Ventura County, California. Juana (daughter of RUIZ, Jose "Saturnino" and OLIVAS, Maria De Los Angeles Gertrudis) was born 16 May 1878, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California; died 25 Dec 1955, Ventura, Ventura, California; was buried Abt. 28 Dec 1955, Ventura, Ventura, California.
