Rancho Corral de Piedra : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rancho Corral de Piedra Rancho Corral de Piedra was a Mexican land grant in present day San Luis Obispo County, California consisting of two square leagues given in 1841 by Governor Juan B. Alvarado to José María Villavicencio, with an extension of five square leagues given in 1846, by Governor Pio Pico. 〔Ogden Hoffman, 1862, ''Reports of Land Cases Determined in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California'', Numa Hubert, San Francisco〕 The grant was located between present day San Luis Obispo and Arroyo Grande, and bounded on the south by Arroyo Grande Creek.〔(Diseño del Rancho Corral de Piedra )〕 ==History== José María Teodoro Villavicencio (1800–1853), called for brevity Villa, was the second son of Rafael de Jesus Villavicencio (a soldier and member of the Portola expedition) and Maria Ildefonsa Berges. José María Villavicencio retired as captain of the militia at Monterey, and was administrator at Mission San Antonio and Mission San Fernando. Villavicencio married Rafaela Rodríguez the daughter of Sebastian Rodríguez grantee of Rancho Bolsa del Pajaro. His brother, Rafael Villavicencio was the grantee of Rancho San Geronimo. 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 Corral de Piedra was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852,〔(United States. District Court (California : Southern District) Land Case 45 SD )〕 and the grant was patented to José María Villavicencio in 1867.〔( Report of the Surveyor General 1844 - 1886 )〕 When José María Villavicencio died in 1853, he left the rancho to his seven children. In 1860, his widow Rafaela borrowed money from her brother Jacinto Rodriguez. In 1866, Rodríguez convinced the heirs to sell him the entire rancho, which he sold to dairymen George Steele and his brothers Edgar W., Isaac C., and Rensselaer E. Steele.〔Catherine Baumgarten Steele, ''The Steele Brothers: Pioneers in California's Great Dairy Industry'', California Historical Society Quarterly, Vol. 20, No. 3 (Sep., 1941), pp. 259-273 〕 In 1867, the heirs decided that the sale to Rodríguez was not legal, and sold six-sevenths of the rancho to George Alexander.〔 ( ''Villa v. Rodriguez'', U.S. Supreme Court, 79 U.S. 12 Wall. 323 323 (1870) )〕
