After a long maritime career, Captain Dana became administrator of the Port of Santa Barbara. In 1828 Captain Dana married Josefa Carrillo of Santa Barbara, whose father was at one time governor. The couple acquired a Mexican land grant and began ranching north of Santa Barbara on the vast Nipomo Rancho, which later would become southern San Luis Obispo County. Unlike many other California ranchos, the Nipomo Rancho was well maintained by several generations of Danas. Juan Francisco Dana, nicknamed "El Huero" (the fair-haired one), was the last surviving Dana brother. His long and interesting life extended from old rancho days under the Republic of Mexico to 1936.
