Rancho Huerta de Cuati
Since 1838
Rancho Huerta de Cuati was a 127-acre (0.51 km2) Mexican land grant in the San Rafael Hills area of present-day Los Angeles County, California given in 1838 by governor Juan Alvarado to Victoria Reid. The name means "Cuati Garden" in Spanish. The rancho included present-day Alhambra, San Marino, South Pasadena, and Pasadena—and Lake Wilson (now San Marino's Lacy Park).
Why it's on the map
Her husband, Hugo Reid was not listed on the title because he was not yet a Mexican citizen.
When Mexico ceded California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that its historic land grants would be honored.
