Summary
The administrator of misiones de Californias asks the viceroy to return some of the land that belonged to the missions and were later given to settlers of Villa de Hoyos and Cerro Santiago, because remaining agostaderos are not enough to sustain the cattle. Survey is effected, and declaration is taken to vecinos and estate administrators from several villages in the area, recording in very precise and detailed way the limits of each agostadero, private estate and of the jurisdictions of each village. Sometimes the number of animals raised in each agostadero is also declared. Witnesses of the division of the hacienda of California, when the new villages were founded, describe which were the limits of that original unit. Vecinos ask the limits to be maintained as they are, because any reduction in their estates would menace their economic stability and ultimately lead to the depopulation of the frontier. Some of them Argue that the land they received did not belong to the missions but was occupied by Indians. Two agostaderos called Nochebuena and Corcobado, seem to be the main source of the conflict. (A. Nielsen, October 1989)
