Rancho Huerta de RomualdoRancho Huerta de Romualdo was a 117-acre (0.47 km2) Mexican land grant in present-day San Luis Obispo County, California given in 1842 by Governor Juan B. Alvarado and in 1846 by Governor Pío Pico to Romualdo.[1] The name means Romualdo's vegetable garden. The grant between Morro Bay and San Luis Obispo, extended along Chorro Creek and encompassed Cerro Romauldo.[2] HistoryThe one-tenth square league to Romualdo, a Chumash Indian.[3] In 1846 Romualdo sold his land to Captain John Wilson (1797–1861), owner of the adjacent Rancho El Chorro, Rancho San Luisito and Rancho Cañada de los Osos y Pecho y Islay. 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 Huerta de Romualdo was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852,[4][5] and the grant was patented to John Wilson in 1871.[6][7] See alsoReferences
