Rancho Llano Seco
Rancho Llano Seco was a Mexican land grant in present day Butte County, California given in 1845 by Governor Pio Pico to Sebastian Keyser (Kayser).〔Ogden Hoffman, 1862, ''Reports of Land Cases Determined in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California'', Numa Hubert, San Francisco〕 Llano Seco means "dry plains" in Spanish. The grant extended along the east bank of the Sacramento River south of present day Chico.〔(Diseño del Rancho Llano Seco )〕
==History==
The four square league grant, provisionally made in 1844 by Governor Manuel Micheltorena, was confirmed in 1845 by Governor Pico. Sebastian Keyser (d.1850), born in Austria, was a trapper who had accompanied John Sutter in 1838 from Missouri, through New Mexico to California. Keyser went to Oregon but returned in 1841 to work for Sutter at his Rancho New Helvetia. In 1845, Sebastian Keyser became owner of a half interest in Rancho Johnson. He settled on the Bear River, and married Elizabeth Rhoads. Keyser sold his interest in the ranch to Charles James Brenham in 1849. Keyser then operated a ferry on the Cosumnes River, where he drowned in 1850.〔( Sebastian Keyser ) The Donner Party:Rescuers and Others〕〔(Biographies ) Sutter's Fort State Historic Park〕
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 Llano Seco was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852,〔(United States. District Court (California : Northern District) Land Case 398 ND )〕 and the grant was patented to Charles J. Brenham in 1860.〔( Report of the Surveyor General 1844 - 1886 )〕
Between 1860 and 1875, John Parrott acquired all of Rancho Llano Seco. John Parrott (-1884), a native of Tennessee, joined his brother's mercantile and importing business in Mexico. He was appointed United States Consul at Mazatlán from 1837 to 1846, and reappointed after the Mexican–American War in 1848 until his resignation and move to San Francisco in 1850. Parrot and Company, of San Francisco was a major landholder and banking firm. In 1852, he built one of San Francisco's first large buildings, the Parrott Block. In 1853, he married Abbie Eastman Meagher (1829–1917). In 1862, he bought part of Rancho de las Pulgas, and built in 1868, his Baywood residence and estate.〔J. Roger Jobson, ''John Parrott: Portrait of a Pioneer'', The Nob Hill Gazette, May 1982〕〔Barbara Donohoe Jostes, 1972, ''John Parrott 1811-1884'', Alfred Kennedy, San Francisco, California"〕〔Jourdan George Myers, 1987, ''Tiburcio Parrott 1840 - 1894. The Man Who Built Miravalle - Falcon Crest'', Deer Park, California〕 Rancho Llano Seco is still owned by the descendants of John and Abbie Parrott.
