A Santa Ynez Valley landmark is the Old Grist Mill at Mission Santa Ines, now part of the Rasmussen ranch near Solvang. The 1950 dedication marked the site as a California Historical Landmark, commemorating Joseph Chapman the Yankee builder who created the first eastern type grist mill in California and later married Guadalupe Ortega at the mission. The feature recounts Chapman's varied roles from pirate to craftsman, his marriage in 1832, and his death in Santa Barbara in 1849 with burial at Old Mission Santa Barbara.
