Title supplied by cataloger based on the caption for a print of this image that appears in the Huntington Library's Verne Dyson Collection (mssHM 26404) p. 150 (Box 3): "Old Adobe Home of F. P. F. Temple on Rancho La Merced." Date range approximated by cataloger based on the year that film negatives came into use and the latest known dates indicated for other Hazard images in the Huntington's collection. F.P.F. Temple made Rancho La Merced his home after becoming the son-in-law to William Workman. Temple and Workman founded the bank Temple & Workman in Los Angeles at Temple Block in 1871. Temple died at Rancho La Merced in April of 1880.
