History

Many of the original inhabitants have been laid to rest in Pioneer Cemetery, including Moses Wicks, who brought oysters to San Leandro Bay (by boat around the cape) from Patchogue, Long Island. Bohannon's pioneering pre-cutting techniques, referred to as the "California method," were used in later developments, such as the more famous Levittown, Pennsylvania. San Lorenzo was mostly farmland from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, a significant center of production of fruit and flowers. The population was 21,898 at the 2000 census.

San Lorenzo was part of a large Spanish land grant prior to the United States' takeover of California in 1848. .
