He is a man of enterprise and keen foresight. He is among the early settlers worthy of representation in the history of his chosen county, and has been actively identified with the development of the eastern part of the county for many years. Mr. Preston was born in Bradford County, Pennsylvania, on July 16, 1837. He received his education in the public school of his native State, and was reared on a farm. In 1864 he came west via the Isthmus of Panama and found employment at ranching in Nevada. On election day, 1864, he came to California, and in 1865 he located in eastern Contra Costa County. When he located on his present farm there were no houses between his place and Antioch. Mr. Preston was united in marriage to Melissa Woodard, a native of Pennsylvania, in October, 1859, and her death occurred on February 1, 1917. To this union there were seven children--Francis M., born January 23, 1861, married Ida Buress of Bay Point, and their two children are Marion and Lloyd; Eva Sarah, born October 23, 1869, was united in marriage to Frank M. May, and their children are Marjorie and Evelyn; Rosa May, born February 13, 1872, and married George Daunt of Petaluma, and they have one daughter, Dorothea; Ida, wife of W. H.

In 1904 Mr. Preston retired, and has spent...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Contra Costa County, California: Including Its Geography, Geology, Topography, Climatography and Description; Together With a Record of the Mexican Grants; The Bear Flag War; The Mount Diablo Coal Fields; The Early History and Settlement, Compiled From the Most Authentic Sources Nearly twelve months ago the task of compiling' the History of Contra Costa County was undertaken' by us, but, owing to circumstances over which we had no control, it was not until the month of January, 1882, that operations were fully inaugurated. At length we are enabled to give our labors to our patrons and the public. The collecting and collating of notes has been no ordinary task; great distances have been compassed to secure personal knowledge; musty volumes have been exhumed, wherefrom to gain incontrovertible data. For the most part, we have received courteous aid; not unseldom have we been rebuffed, but only from those whose knowledge of the world is confined to the limited extent of their own vision. Our chapter on the Bear Flag war is from the pen of Mr. Munro Fraser, and was compiled in 1879 by him, for the History of Sonoma County, and will be found to be, not the least interesting portion of the present volume.
