With courage reflecting her ancestry and confidence befitting a Scout, sixteen year old Brittany Pain educated her elders in a power point presentation on the topic of “Earliest People Along the San Dieguito Coast-Who Were They and Where Are Their Descendants Today?” at the March luncheon meeting of the De Anza chapter.

Brittany’s mother, Betsy Pain, a De Anza Chapter member, and grandmother, Marti Meiners, De Anza 1st Vice Regent, were in the audience – three generations of Daughters!  Brittany is a member of the Red, White, and Blue Society, Children of the American Revolution. Her brothers, David and Clark Pain, are Sons of the American Revolution.

Brittany’s interest in the early history of native inhabitants of San Diego County was inspired by her mother, archeologist and professor Betsy Pain, who took Brittany on her field research in the area.
