- Under the History section, replace the sentence: "In 1857 Bradley Varnum Sargent bought Rancho Potrero de San Carlos. Sargent (1828–1893), born in New Hampshire, came to California with his three brothers, Jacob L. (1818–1890), Roswell C. (1821–1903), and James P. (1823-1890) in 1849. In 1856 the Sargent brothers bought Rancho Juristac south of present-day Gilroy. Sargent moved to Monterey in 1858. Sargent also purchased Rancho San Francisquito southeast of Rancho Potrero de San Carlos and combined the two into a single large ranch. He eventually owned thousands of head of cattle and hundreds of horses. He became a prominent attorney until his death in 1893. [citation needed]"
- With this one that includes a requested citation:
- In 1857-1858, Bradley Varnum Sargent and his three brothers, Jacob, Roswell, and James, acquired 23,000 acres (9,300 ha) of Rancho Potrero de San Carlos and Rancho San Francisquito in Carmel Valley, California.[1]
