Hermosillo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hermosillo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Hermosillo's origin traces back to 1700, when several villages were founded on lands previously inhabited by Native Americans. It came to be named the Villa de Pitic, but on September 5, 1828, it was renamed Hermosillo in honor of general José María González de Hermosillo who in 1810 fought for the independence of Mexico in the state of Sinaloa. On April 26, 1879, the city was named the capital of Sonora, and that declaration was confirmed in article 28 of the state constitution, written on September 15, 1917."
