	Rancho San Miguel, owned by Jose de Jesus Noe from 1846-1852, was one of many in San Francisco. His spread of one Spanish league (4444.34 acres) covered one-sixth of San Francisco. In the geographical center of town, it was bordered by other ranches often named for their owners: Benito Diaz Rancho, Bolton Rancho, Jose Bernal Rancho, Ridley Rancho and de Haro Rancho.
