Rancho San Benito was a {{convert|6671|acre|km2|sing=on}} Mexican land grant in the Salinas Valley, in present day Monterey County, California given in 1842 by Governor Juan B. Alvarado to Francisco Garcia.[1] The grant extended along the Salinas River south of Rancho San Bernardo. Present day San Lucas is within the boundaries of the grant.[2][3]

History

Francisco Garcia received one and half square leagues, and built an adobe house.[4]

James Watson (1800-1863), born in Scotland, arrived by ship from the Sandwich Islands in Santa Barbara in 1824, and went to Monterey . He established a hide and tallow business, and married Mariana Escamilla (1805-1871) in 1830. In 1850, Garcia sold Rancho San Benito to James Watson.[5]

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 San Benito was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1853,[6] and the grant was patented to James Watson in 1869.[7]

Watson sold Rancho San Benito to Alberto Trescony of the adjacent Rancho San Lucas.
