Summary

Description
English: Rancho San Francisco, California Registered Historical Landmark No. 556

“Approximately one-half mile south of the point was the adobe headquarters of Rancho San Francisco, originally built about 1804 as a granary of Mission San Fernando. The rancho was granted to Antonio de Valle in 1839. Here, in January 1850, William Lewis Manly and John Rogers obtained supplies and animals to rescue their comrades in a California-bound gold-seeking emigrant party that was stranded and starving in Death Valley, some 250 miles to the northeast.”

The marker is located along the western side of The Old Road, to the southeast of its junction with Henry Mayo Drive. The ruins of the original San Francisco Xavier Estancia is located about 800 metres (0.5 miles) SSW of the marker.
