Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe was a Mexican land grant in present day San Benito County, California given in 1840 by Governor Juan B. Alvarado to Francisco Perez Pacheco.〔Ogden Hoffman, 1862, ''Reports of Land Cases Determined in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California'', Numa Hubert, San Francisco〕 Bolsa means "pockets" and refers to pockets of land in the Tequisquina Slough. The grant was bounded on the north by Rancho Ausaymas y San Felipe and the south by Rancho San Justo, and encompassed Dunneville.〔(Diseño del Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe )〕 ==History== The two square league grant was made to Francisco Pacheco, who was the owner of Rancho Ausaymas y San Felipe and Rancho San Justo.〔Marjorie Pierce,1981, ''East of the Gabilans'', Western Tanager Press, ISBN 978-0-934136-11-2〕 Francisco Perez Pacheco (1790–1860), born in Mexico, came to Monterey in 1819. In 1840, his daughter María Jacinta Pacheco (1813 – ) married Sebastián Nuñez, grantee of Rancho Orestimba y Las Garzas. In 1850, his daughter María Ysidora Pacheco (1829–1892) married Mariano Malarin (1827–1895), son of the grantee of Rancho Chualar.〔(''Portraits of Isidora Pacheco and Mariano Malarín'' by Leonardo Barbieri )〕 With the cession of California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the land grants would be honored. As required by the Land Act of 1851, a claim for Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852. The district court, while upholding the Pacheco title, limited it to one square league.〔(United States. District Court (California : Southern District) Land Case 77 SD )〕 Ysidora Pacheco de Malarin and Sebastián Nuñez, who were the executors of Francisco Pacheco's estate, appealed the district court ruling to the US Supreme Court. In 1863, the court validated a grant of two square leagues even though the original document had been altered, changing it from one square league to two.〔( ''Malarin v. United States'', U.S. Supreme Court, 68 U.S. 1 Wall. 282 282 (1863) )〕 The grant was patented to Francisco Perez Pacheco in 1871.〔( Report of the Surveyor General 1844 - 1886 )〕 James Dunne (-1874), who had come from Ireland to join the California Gold Rush, bought Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe and half of Rancho Ausaymas y San Felipe from Francisco Pacheco. In 1862, James Dunne married Catherine O'Toole Murphy widow of Bernard Martin of Rancho San Francisco de las Llagas.〔(Catherine O'Toole Spawned a City )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rancho Bolsa de San Felipe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
