Juan Maria Sepulveda was the owner of a ranch in the South Bayarea in 1858, located on Santa Monica Bay in Los Angeles County, California. The area, originally part of the Spanish land grant of Rancho Boca de Santa Monica, later became known as the Huntington Palisades.[1]

He was named to the Los Angeles Common Council in a special election on August 9, 1853, serving until May 4, 1854.[2]

A native of the Pueblo de Los Ángeles, he was married to Jesus Alvarado Sepulveda, and they had a son, Ildefonso A. Sepulveda, born about 1861.[3]
