Hi, Michael -
Connect up with the folks at LAPL. They've got an excellent set of maps
on exhibit now of the whole county and I believe there's at least one or
more that have all the ranchos on them. BTW - Anybody who's in LA over
the holidays might want to take the opportunity to check out the exhibit
at LAPL.

>I received a request for a current map of L.A. county which shows the boundaries of Spanish & Mexican ranchos. There were several maps published pre-1960 of the ranchos (most prior to 1940), and more recent ones (like in Los Angeles: A to Z) which show the boundaries but nothing else. Anyone ever see anything like this? A shape file of California or Los Angeles ranchos would work, too. > >Thanks, Mike > > >------------------------------------ >Michael L.
