Font was chaplain and cartographer to the expedition led by Juan Bautista de Ansa which made the overland journey from northern Mexico to the California coast during the winter of 1775-1776. The maps he drew were exceedingly important in the history of the cartography of the Southwest and California, being the first based on actual observations for much of the region.
