Their fossils were found only<span> in South Africa and Iraver formations of Brazil, the two localities which at present are 4,800 km apart with an ocean in between them. </span>

geniusboy [140]

This is a tough question because the answer depends on when and where. If you are just worried about who was there first, then the answer should be the Franciscans who worked from 1526 [when the pope declared the Native American Indian capable of understanding Catholicism] to about 1573 which is when hundred of missions were present  in Florida and  New Mexico.

Later on California had 21 missions along the El Camino Real (from San Francisco to   San Diego).
