The Sanchez Compound
The Montecito Fire District's new compound encompasses three of Spanish Town's historic buildings: the Alameda Saloon, a grocery store and a building whose original use is unconfirmed. Disputing sources claim it was a barn, a dance hall, a blacksmithery, a boarding house and a bordello.
...
What is known about the early years of the ownership is spotty. A pre-1900 assessor's map shows Viviana (Bibiana) Sanchez as the owner.
In 1897, Vicente A. Juarez ran the grocery and in 1901 he ran the saloon.
By 1912, both Viviana Sanchez and Vicente A. Juarez lived on the property and Viviana ran the grocery.
After Viviana's death in 1936, Vicente shared the house with Viviana son, Alfredo Romero.
In 1941, Viviana's son Jose Alfonso Romero was the owner.
By 1951, Alfonso shared ownership with his cousin, A. R. Graham.
In 1958, Alfonso lived in the old saloon and Victor Leon Lopez, another son of Viviana, lived in the house at the back of the compound.
Eventually, the compound passed out of the hands of Viviana's many descendants.
...
Pedro Loreto and Viviana had nine children between 1870 and 1885. They separated but, being Catholic, could not divorce. Viviana entered into common law marriages with three other men, and bore five more children.
