# Vasily Dosekin

Vasily Sergeyevich Dosekin (Russian: Василий Сергеевич Досекин; 1829–1900, Kharkiv) was a Russian photographer. From c.1860-c.1890, he created portraits of notable people, including the Imperial Family.

## Biography

He was an hereditary nobleman, and served as a second lieutenant in the Crimean War, where he was wounded. In 1856, he was sent to Kharkiv for treatment, and established a workshop there in 1857; making portraits of local residents and cityscapes. He opened his first photography studio in 1864, in Kursk. By 1875, he was able to open another studio, in Moscow, on Tverskaya Street. His son, Nikolay, who became a well known Impressionist painter, began his career by working in his father's studios.
His cityscape photographs would later appear in Харьков, его прошлое и настоящее в рисунках и описаниях: Историко-справочный путеводитель (Kharkov, its Past and Present, drawings and descriptions: Historical and Reference Guide, 1902), by Alexander Gusev, and История города Харькова за 250 лет его существования (History of the City of Kharkov for 250 Years of its Existence, 1905–1912), a monograph in two volumes by Dmytro Bahaliy.
Both of his studios featured popular photography workshops, with the latest equipment. He was one of the first photographers in that region to switch from calotypes to wet-plate collodion, for higher quality negatives. During this period, he participated in numerous exhibitions and, in 1865, was awarded a medal in Berlin. At the Polytechnic Exhibition [ru] in Moscow (1872), he was presented with a gold medal for "full-length portraits".
In addition to his studios, he was also the owner of a brick factory on the outskirts of Kharkiv, which he opened in 1873, together with an old friend from the army, Captain Arkady Ionin.
He died in 1900, and was buried in Saint John's Cemetery [ru]. A street near some gardens that had been inherited by his daughter Maria was named after him. Following the Revolution, it was renamed "Lenin Street".

# Mary Lou Petty

Mary Lou Petty (April 5, 1915 – April 2, 2014), also known by her married name Mary Lou Skok, was an American competition swimmer. She competed at the 1936 Summer Olympics and placed fourth in the 400-meter freestyle event.
Petty was born in Spokane, Washington. She was an adept swimmer by the age of 8 and began swimming competitively at the age of 13. She had originally prepared to compete in the 1932 Summer Olympics, but the failure of her family's business during the Great Depression prevented her from acquiring the necessary financial backing. After becoming engaged to Bob Skok and taking a job as a secretary at Montgomery Ward, she moved to Seattle and qualified for the 400-meter freestyle at the 1936 Summer Games, having swum out of the Washington Athletic Club for the past three years. During this inter-Olympic period she set several national records. Her roommate on the boat to Berlin was Eleanor Holm Jarrett. Despite food poisoning, she managed to place fourth in the competition and later recalled observing both German Leader Adolf Hitler and athlete Jesse Owens at the Games. Upon her return to New York, she married Skok and eventually moved to Los Angeles, after he decided to pursue optometry. During World War II she helped build wings for the Lockheed Hudson bomber and the two remained together until his death on March 27, 1998.
Petty died on April 2, 2014, at age 98. Until her death she resided in Arizona.

The Battle of France began when German ground forces advanced into France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg on 10 May 1940, and Italy declared war on France on 10 June 1940 and joined the invasion. The Battle of France ended in France's defeat and armistice with Germany and Italy, which went into effect on 25 June 1940. On that day, Argonaute was based at Toulon as part of the 19th Submarine Division with the submarines Galatée, Naïade, and Sirène.

# Rancho Arroyo de Las Nueces y Bolbones

Rancho Arroyo de Las Nueces y Bolbones (also called "San Miguel") was a 17,782-acre (71.96 km$^2$) Mexican land grant in present-day Contra Costa County, California given in 1834 by Governor José Figueroa to Juana Sanchez de Pacheco.
The grant was named after the principal waterway, Arroyo de las Nueces (Walnut Creek), and for the local group of indigenous Americans (known as Bolbones in Spanish, also known as Volvon). The grant was on the western slope of Mount Diablo and includes the area of the present-day city of Walnut Creek. Approximately a quarter of the original rancho has been protected since the early 20th century within the boundaries of Mt. Diablo State Park.

## History

Juana Lorenza Sanchez de Pacheco (1776–1853) was the widow of Miguel Antonio Pacheco (1745–1829), a soldier. He was the son of Juan Salvio Pacheco (1729–1777) and Maria Carmen del Valle, who came to San Francisco in 1776 with the De Anza Expedition. He was a cousin of Salvio Pacheco, founder of Concord, California. The Pacheco family used its land for grazing cattle, but did not settle on the rancho.
With the cession of California to the United States following its victory in the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the historic Spanish and Mexican land grants would be honored. As required by the Land Act of 1851, descendants of the Pacheco family filed a claim for Rancho Arroyo de Las Nueces y Bolbones with the Public Land Commission in 1852, and the grant was patented in 1866 to the heirs of Juana Lorenza Sanchez de Pacheco. The grant was for two leagues (approx. 8857 acres; see Spanish customary units), but was confirmed for nearly four leagues (approx. 17,714 acres or 28 square miles).
Rosa Maria Pacheco, daughter of Miguel Antonio Pacheco, married Jose Maria Sibrian (1798 - ). Their two sons, Jose Ysidro Sibrian (1821 - ) and Jose Ygnacio Sibrian (1822 - ), inherited the rancho. Ygnacio Sibrian built the first roofed residence in the valley around 1850 and was the namesake of the Ygnacio Valley. Shortly before American pioneer John Marsh of Rancho Los Meganos died in 1856, he and Ygnacio Sibrian were involved in a bitter court trial.

## Historic sites of the Rancho

* Old Borges Ranch. The former ranch of American pioneer Frank Borges, who was associated with Walnut Creek.

In 1856 he purchased 500 acres (2.0 km$^2$) of land from Encarnación Pacheco, daughter of Juana Sanchez de Pacheco. Shadelands Ranch House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places for Contra Costa County.
# Rancho Cañada Larga o Verde

Rancho Cañada Larga o Verde was a 6,659-acre (26.95 km$^2$) Mexican land grant in present-day Ventura County, California given in 1841 by Governor Juan B. Alvarado to Joaquina Alvarado. The grant extended along Sulphur Canyon Creek, east of the Ventura River, between Ventura and Ojai. To the west, across the Ventura River was Rancho Cañada de San Miguelito; to the north Rancho Ojai; and to the south and east Rancho Ex-Mission San Buenaventura.

## History

Ana Joaquina Alvarado (1788–1863) was the widow of Gabriel Moraga. Gabriel Antonio Moraga (1765–1823) came to California with the De Anza Expedition, and married Ana Maria Bernal (1770–1802) in 1784. Gabriel enlisted in the San Francisco Company in 1783 and served at the Presidio of San Francisco and Monterey. After Ana Bernal died, Moraga married Joaquina Alvarado in 1806. He was alferez in 1806; brevet lieutenant in 1811; full lieutenant at Santa Barbara in 1817.
With the cession of California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the land grants would be honored. As required by the Land Act of 1851, a claim for Rancho Cañada Larga o Verde was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1852, and the grant was patented to Joaquina Alvarado in 1873. The grant was for one-half square league, but was surveyed as one and one-half square leagues.
Frenchman, Anselme Canet (1833–1914) came to New York City and married Catherine Brannigan in 1863. Canet moved his family to Ventura in 1874 and immediately he branched out into the cattle business and acquired Rancho Cañada Larga y Verde.
