Scott Eccles does relate about Garcia: "He lived
with a faithful servant, a countryman of his own..." and "...there was a wonderful cook, he said, a half-breed whom he had picked up in his travels..." Which, if Garcia was speaking truthfully to Scott Eccles, does imply that the cook was not from San Pedro.

Though later Holmes does say: "The man was a primitive savage from the backwoods of San Pedro..." And the fact he was involved with the revenge plot does suggest he was from San Pedro. But Holmes could have just been making an assumption. Or perhaps the cook was from San Pedro but he or his parents had been born elsewhere.
