Rancho Las Positas : ウィキペディア英語版 | Rancho Las Positas Rancho Las Positas was a Mexican land grant in present-day Alameda County, California given in 1839 by governor Juan Alvarado to Robert Livermore and Jose Noriega.〔Ogden Hoffman, 1862, ''Reports of Land Cases Determined in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California'', Numa Hubert, San Francisco〕 Las Positas means "little watering holes" in Spanish. The rancho included the present-day city of Livermore.〔( Diseño del Rancho Las Positas )〕 ==History== In 1834 Livermore and his business partner José Noriega were keeping livestock at Rancho Las Positas, where they also built an adobe. Livermore and his wife Josefa Higuera Molina, first settled in the Sunol Valley, but later moved to Rancho Las Positas, as Livermore was making regular trips there to manage his rancho. Initially an adobe structure built by Livermore and Amador served as their house on the rancho.〔Livermore Heritage Guild, 2006, ''Early Livermore'', Arcadia Publishing, ISBN 978-0-7385-3099-4〕 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 Las Positas was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852,〔(United States. District Court (California : Northern District) Land Case 135 ND )〕 and the grant was patented to Livermore and Noriega in 1872.〔( Report of the Surveyor General 1844 - 1886 )〕 In 1847 Jose Noriega and Robert Livermore also purchased Rancho Canada de los Vaqueros to the north of Rancho Las Positas. In 1854, Livermore and Noriega came to an agreement to separate their properties. Livermore purchased Noriega's half of Rancho Las Positas and sold his half of Rancho Canada de los Vaqueros to Noreiga. But Livermore had already conveyed all his interest in Rancho Canada de los Vaqueros to his wife and children in 1852, of which fact Noriega was ignorant; so that the deed from Livermore to Noriega in fact conveyed nothing, inasmuch as Livermore had then no title to convey. This was the beginning of several lawsuits.〔''Peter V. Ross'', California unreported cases By California. Supreme Court, California. District Courts of Appeal, Louis Peres v. Juan Sunol, No. 2024; November 25, 1870〕 When Livermore died in 1858, before the establishment of the town that bears his name, he left behind Josefa and eight children.
