The Wrightington adobe was built in the late Mexican period with
a wing constructed in 1852. It served as the personal residence of
Thomas Wrightington and his family. After his death in 1853, his
widow Juana Machado Alipaz de Wrightington remained in the house
until the late 1890s. Dr. George McKinstry, Jr. used a room in her
house for his personal residence and office for almost thirty years.
He and Juana Wrightington provided medical care for Native Americans
in San Diego County.
