Located in a spacious valley named Santa Catalina de Bononia de los Encinos (St. Catherine of Bolognas Valley of the Live Oaks). The valley had four springs that flowed strong, thus influencing the friars decision to build here, between the Missions in San Gabriel and San Buenaventura. Don Francisco Reyes, the alcalde of the Los Angeles, supposedly owned the property. Since the property was really owned by the Mission San Gabriel, he was removed and the padres took over his ranch house as living quarters.
