Download or read book The Early Days of Santa Barbara California written by Walter A. Hawley and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Days of Santa Barbara, California: From the First Discoveries by Europeans to December, 1846 In disregard of the historic value of the old buildings of the Mission, Presidio, and Pueblo of Santa Barbara - precious monuments sacred to the memory of men who will be remembered for generations to come - tiled roofs have been destroyed, walls allowed to crumble, and foundations effaced. Already some of the most interesting buildings have gone. Even their former locations are known to few. Fifteen years ago, realizing how rapidly the old landmarks were dissappearing, the writer with the assistance of an engineer made surveys both at the Mission and at the presidio of all the buildings then standing, and also of all the ruins and traces of foundations of former buildings. These surveys were then carefully platted. This work was done on account of a personal interest in the subject, and with the view of placing the data, thus obtained, at the disposal of any one competent and willing to write the history of the early days of Santa Barbara. But the subject has awakened but little interest in the historian; and as some of the ruins that were then surveyed have since disappeared, the writer now offers this little sketch, accompanied by plans of the Mission and presidio, made from the original surveys, in the hope that it will create a greater interest in the lives and works of the founders of this beautiful city.

Except that of A, which, as already mentioned, consists of a number of fragments, and D which represents a skull cap or calotte only. The external compacta of all the parts belonging to B is so little impaired that it retains its glossy appearance. The same is true of D and partly of E. In the latter and in C the compacta is less smooth and is slightly injured in places by the chemical action of the soil and perhaps by root erosion, without, however, being scaly or calcined. Minor defects in the skulls are mentioned in connection with the parts affected in the detailed list'below.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Ventura Counties, California, Vol. 2 John F. More. Distinguished not only as one of the early promoters of Santa Barbara County, and a prominent figure in its material develop ment, but for the remarkable sagacity and discernment he has displayed in all of his business transactions, John F. More holds an important position among the more extensive and progressive agriculturists of Southern California, his highly improved and finely equipped ranch, containing between and acres, being advantageously located on the sea coast, about five miles from Santa Barbara. A native of Ohio, he was born in Medina County, August 19, 1839, and was there brought up and educated. Mr. More was one of a family of twelve children, six boys and six girls, all of whom eventually settled in California. His eldest brother. A. B. More, who served for a time in the Mexican war, came to this state in 1846, and three years later two other brothers, T. Wallace More and A. P. More, also located here, and in 1850 they were joined by another brother, Henry H. More. These enterprising brothers invested largely in land, at one time owning a strip extending from within a mile of the sea up the Santa Clara Valley for more than thirty-two miles, a valuable property, from which they subsequently sold acres to G. G. Briggs. On March 24, 1877, T. Wallace More was brutally assassinated by masked men who first set fire to his barn in order to get him out of his house, and when he appeared at his door shot him, even continuing to pierce his body with bullets while he was dying. A. P. More, whose death occurred in 1893, was at that time sole owner of Santa Rosa Island. Three of the brothers, A. P. More, Henry H. More and A. B. More, are buried in Oakland, California, while the bodies of two other brothers, T. W. More and F. W. More, were laid to rest in the Santa Barbara Cemetery.

Download or read book An Account of the Indians of the Santa Barbara Islands in California Classic Reprint written by Gustav Eisen and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Account of the Indians of the Santa Barbara Islands in California Having been requested to write a short account of th 6 Indians of the Santa Barbara Islands I accepted the invitation with pleasure, though with some misgivings. The fact is that next to nothing is known about these now extinct Indians, and the few notices extant are so scattered in rare books and periodicals of an evanescent nature, that it would take months and even years to gather them together. In other words our historical knowledge of the Indians is too small to be very interesting though just on that account the more valuable. There has never appeared in print any connective narrative of these Indians, and the following notes have been culled from what literature I could find without going outside of San Francisco, together with notes made during my visits to these islands in 1873 and 1897. At the earliest of these visits the Indians had already been totally extinct for twenty years. While the skulls and skeletons presented to the Society were collected only on the Island of Santa Rosa, I have thought it best to include in this account all the other islands of the channel.
