369.	Golden Christmas memories of Sutter / Bowen, Jerry [51] [WAYITWAS-2000-51] The following is a very condensed and edited version of an article from the San Francisco Examiner by John Bonner, in 1897. The surprise ending of the story causes one to wonder if John Sutter knew something more than he let on prior to James Marshall's historic discovery of gold at Coloma that started the gold rush to California - Editor.

370.	Remembering some Christmas pasts / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [50] [WAYITWAS-2000-50] Christmas is fast approaching with its wonderful traditions and not so wonderful "still-have-to-do" moments. Records of earlier celebrations allow us a glimpse of some of the same traditions but also of a slower, seemingly more peaceful season. Detailed record - Similar records
371.	Recalling USS California's tumultuous history / Bowen, Jerry [49] [WAYITWAS-2000-49] Mare Island built 513 ships before construction was stopped after the dockside sinking of the submarine Guitaro, and the ultimate closure of the shipyard. But this story is not about Mare Island, nor the Guitaro. Detailed record - Similar records
372.	Settlers relied on their own skills / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [48] [WAYITWAS-2000-48] Health care has always been a concern to the families settling in a new area. Early pioneers had to rely on their skills and knowledge, treating common ailments with herbs and other substances then thought to be beneficial.

373.	Colorful adventurer worked the spectrum from druggist to a blockade runner / Bowen, Jerry [47] [WAYITWAS-2000-47] One of the lesser known characters that once lived in Vaca Valley was a man known as Capt. Richard H. Chinn. What little is known about him came mostly from stories he told about his life to friends [...] Detailed record - Similar records
374.	Cutting cots was a Vacaville tradition / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [46] [WAYITWAS-2000-46] Summer months have always been a busy time for the orchard industry. Detailed record - Similar records
375.	Vallejo left a lasting impression / Bowen, Jerry [45] [WAYITWAS-2000-45] California's settlement did not happen by accident, it took men of vision, courage and tireless energy. Among them were the earliest settlers of this State, the Californios. Detailed record - Similar records
376.	The Vanden Station Train Wreck / Bowen, Jerry [44] [WAYITWAS-2000-44] When you read the old newspapers, it's somewhat astonishing to see how often people were injured or killed by trains in the early part of the century. Inattention, lack of adequate warnings at railroad crossings, company policies, and the insane urge to "beat" the trains through the intersection were often the reasons for the accidents.

377.	Book aimed to lure Easterners with fruit tales / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [43] [WAYITWAS-2000-43] Are the people in New Orleans, St. Louis, Chicago, New York, Boston and elsewhere, who have paid a dollar a pound for California cherries in April, or who in 1887 ate nearly 2,000 carloads of California peaches, pears, plums, apricots and grapes, curious to know whence a good part of these fruits come, or to learn the manner of their growth and the appearance of the country?

378.	Bungling burglars blast Bank of Vacaville vault / Bowen, Jerry [42] [WAYITWAS-2000-42] 1990 in Vacaville started off with a bang ... literally. An explosion on Jan. 1 at 1:09 in the morning at the Security Pacific Bank on the corner of Alamo and Albacete, blew chunks of the building onto Alamo Drive and the surrounding area [...] Detailed record - Similar records
