Did "Seguro" build this in 1834? Something else I need to Google. (I have seen it labeled as both the Sepulveda Adobe and Downey House, which I guess it was in turn.)
Olvera used to hear County Court cases in his adobe. The Plaza really was the civic center.

Yes, Seguro but I read '1844' not '34. I really trust the Ruxton map. I've never caught him in error. I don't remember the Downey house being connected to Sepulveda. I think Sepulveda was across the street to the west. Although, Sepulveda certainly shows up all over the Plaza area. Also if you look closely you'll see the 'shrouded in trees' is how Ruxton depicts the house with the trees planted all along the south facing arcade.
