  	MARRIAGE PLACE - La Graciosa: http://www.geojohn.org/Careaga/History.html Further north of Bicknell was Graciosa Station located near where the little town of La Graciosa used to be. The story goes that La Graciosa was started in the 1860s as a saloon and livery stable to serve the stage coach line and that it later grew to include a post office, stores and a school. There is very little researchable history of La Graciosa, but it is supposed to be the oldest non-native settlement in the Santa Maria Valley. The town disappeared when the land was bought by the famous H.M. Newhall (of the Newhall Land and Farming Company) in 1879 and, after loosing in court, all the squatters had to leave. Soon the houses and buildings were gone and thus ended La Graciosa. Today nothing remains and nobody really knows exactly where La Graciosa was, but it was probably where the Orcutt Expressway-Highway 1 interchange is today.
