Rancho San Francisquito was a Mexican land grant in present day Monterey County, California given in 1835 by Governor José Castro to Catalina Manzaneli de Munras.〔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 in the upper Carmel Valley.〔( Diseño del Rancho San Francisquito )〕 ==History== The two square league grant was made to Catalina Manzaneli de Munras who was the wife of Esteban Munras (1798–1850), a Monterey trader, amateur painter, and grantee of Rancho San Vicente. Catalina Manzanelli, the daughter of Maria Casilda Ponce De Leon and Nicolas Manzanelli, a silk merchant from Genoa, Italy, was also grantee of Rancho Laguna Seca. 〔Luther A. Ingersoll,1893,''Memorial and Biographical History of the Coast Counties of Central California'', The Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago.〕 William Robert Garner(1803–1849), an English ex-whalerman, arrived in Santa Barbara in 1824, and in Monterey in 1828. In 1831, he married Antonia Francisca Butrón (1814–1883), one of the heirs to Rancho La Natividad. Garner began cutting lumber from the redwoods in the upper Carmel Valley. William Garner bought Rancho San Francisquito. He was killed by Indians in 1849.〔William Robert Garner and Donald Munro Craig, 1970,''Letters from California, 1846-1847'', University of California Press, ISBN 978-0-520-01565-4〕 José Abrego bought Rancho San Francisquito at the probate sale of the estate of William Robert Garner in 1853.〔Donald Munro Craig, 1970, ''Letters From California, 1846-1847.
