6915.	Delving into Winters story with Vacaville / Bowen, Jerry [551] [WAYITWAS-2004-551] The town of Winters, located just across the Yolo County line, shares its history with Vacaville in many ways. The earliest inhabitants of the area were Indians known as the Wintun, also known as Southern Patwin or Southern Wintun. They moved into the southern Sacramento Valley from the north some 1,200 years ago. Detailed record - Similar records

6917.	Unearthing fact and fiction in life of poet / Bowen, Jerry [549] [WAYITWAS-2004-549] In my last column we saw that Markham had run away and was gone for about six months and had finally realized his dream to attend Vacaville's California College. During my continuing research about Markham, I found the following in notes supplied to the Vacaville Heritage Council by J. W. Hawkins: The reference isn't noted, but I suspect it came from "The Unknown Edwin Markham" by Lois Filler. Detailed record - Similar records
6918.	Rhyme and reason behind early Solano poet / Bowen, Jerry [544] [WAYITWAS-2004-544] I don't suppose that most newcomers to Vacaville have ever heard of Edwin Markham. Some may have heard of the poem, "Man With a Hoe," but don't know that a man who once lived in the now-contentious Lagoon Valley wrote it. So, let's look at a little history of Charles Edwin Anson Markham and some interesting contradictions. Detailed record - Similar records

Pageant showed panorama of early Solano / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [543] [WAYITWAS-2004-543] The spring of 1923 saw all of Solano County's women's clubs feverishly preparing for the event of the year - a historic pageant in Benicia to be held May 11, re-enacting the history of early California through a scripted play, scenes depicting specific events, colorful costumes and specially written music.
