      property located in what is now the center of San Luis Obispo. A prominent street
      known as Higuera Street, named after him, adjoins this property. Most of this land
      has since. been disposed of, and Mr. Higuera's widow and family who survive him
      now reside in a dwelling of their own on Marsh street. Mr. Higuera fought in the
      Mexican war and took an important part therein. For some years before his death
      he suffered greatly from rheumatism and was quite an invalid; and prior to this he
      was actively engaged in ranching and was very successful. In 184'4 he was married to
      Bacilia Hernandez, by whom he had fifteen children, ten of whom are now living, one
      having died October 12, 1890.

      Basa Hernandez
      D. MUTNICK'S NOTES:
      *(1)Placed here (w/this family) because these parents had other children baptized at Mission San Juan Bautista as late as 1839 and were apparently at or near Monterey or San Juan Bautista at the time of this marriage. The spacing of their children fits him in here. Juan and Maria Pilar Higuera (Tomas' Higuera's sister and brother) were padrinos for a Higuera y Hernandez child Msn. San Carlos 2/19/1843, but they were not identified as tios.
