It didn't last long, but still you can see maps that make this distinction. very cool.

Originally this area of the city was owned by Mexico, then annexed by the U.S. in 1848, and officially made part of San Francisco in 1866. I felt that the dates between the land being Annexed by the USA and then Founded, ie: taken in and officially made part of the city of San Francisco, was worth distinguishing. I guess it ultimately depends on how you want to define "Found". Hi Chris,
