*1820 - San Bernardino land grant. Lieutenant Ignacio de Perez petitioned for a grant of 4 sitios of land. It was surveyed in 1821 and witnesses testified that Perez had enough livestock to start a ranch. An auction was held in Arispe, Mexico in May 1822. Perez held the wining bid of $90. A record of the grant was filed, but no title was issued. In 1900, the Court of Private Land Claims confirmed 2,3366.5 acres on the American side, the rest being in Mexico. After a survey, it was determined that this land grant was actually 2,383.86 acres.<ref>Early Arizona: Prehistory to Civil War, by Jay J.
