Rancho Dominguez is a former Spanish colonial and Mexican settlement in Alta California, and a present-day unincorporated community in Los Angeles County, California. Rancho Dominguez is located between Long Beach, California and Carson, California, near East Rancho Dominguez. The Communities of Unincorporated Rancho Dominguez are: Rancho Dominguez, East Rancho Dominguez, and West Rancho Dominguez. Historically Rancho Dominguez also contained the sites of the cities of Compton, California, Carson, California and a portion of North Long Beach, California. ==History== Originally Rancho Dominguez was a small part of the Spanish land grant Rancho San Pedro, from the King of Spain in 1784.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?marker=64857 )〕 The Dominguez Rancho Adobe Museum on South Alameda Avenue is the historic ranch home of land grantee Juan Dominguez and Manuel Dominguez, the men for whom the area is named. The Dominguez family lived in the home until the 1920s and it is now a retirement home for Claretin Catholic priests. In the late 1800s most of the southern part of Rancho Dominguez and the land leading down to the Los Angeles Harbor was acquired by the railroad industry. Today these railroad tracks are used for the same purpose, and is a valuable tie between the Port of Los Angeles and Downtown Los Angeles. Rancho Dominguez was home to California State University, Dominguez Hills. However, when Carson gained cityhood in 1967, it incorporated the Dominguez Hills section of Rancho Dominguez within its city boundaries. 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 Dominguez, California」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
