6736.	The way it was: Poor road conditions in Solano / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [869] [WAYITWAS-2008-869] This story concludes the "Solano - The Way It Was" column. It has been a rewarding experience to delve into the lesser-known stories of our community. I am grateful to all readers for your suggestions, comments, critics and nice compliments. I also want to thank Reporter editor Diane Barney and its outstanding editors for their wonderful support over the past eight years. Detailed record - Similar records
6737.	It's been a fun ride, but I'm ready to explore the West / Bowen, Jerry [868] [WAYITWAS-2008-868] When I started writing Solano County history articles for The Reporter, I couldn't help wondering if there was enough history to write about different subjects for any amount of time. I must admit that while I was the editor and writer for the United Prospectors Inc. publications, there was plenty of fodder about the gold country but I wasn't sure about Solano County.

6738.	Poor road conditions brought the citizenry together / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [867] [WAYITWAS-2008-867] "Good or Poor Roads. - Messrs. Citizens of Vacaville Township, which will you have?" opened the Reporter on Thursday afternoon, Feb. 13, 1890 [...] Detailed record - Similar records
6739.	Annie Lizzie Gill: A pioneer in every sense / Bowen, Jerry [866] [WAYITWAS-2008-866] In my last column, we left off with Annie Lizzie Gill's husband, Newton, dying on Jan. 22, 1924, by a fall. Then her youngest son, Homer, left home to see the world by working on ships, leaving just her and No. 1 son, Howard, to carry on with the future. Detailed record - Similar records
6740.	It was primitive, but settlers celebrated Fourth / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [865] [WAYITWAS-2008-865] Some of my recent columns followed the story of Frances Ann Copper, as told to the San Francisco Chronicle on the occasion of California's 50th anniversary in 1900.

6741.	Starting an orchard barely panned out for Gills / Bowen, Jerry [864] [WAYITWAS-2008-864] In my last column, the Home Acres Improvement Association failed to get the teacher promised by the Vallejo School Board even though they had obtained a building for a school.

6742.	Benicia Tannery was one of the state's best / Goerke-Shrode, Sabine [863] [WAYITWAS-2008-863] During the 19th century, canneries and tanneries formed the core of Benicia's economy. The earliest tannery, the Pioneer Tannery, was founded in 1864 and underwent several changes of ownership. Within a short time period others followed, creating a cluster of tanneries.

6743.	Making a life in Vallejo wasn't easy for the Gills / Bowen, Jerry [862] [WAYITWAS-2008-862] When I started this story two weeks ago I made a whopper of a mistake when I said, "Annie wasn't very generous with dates in her book," but it appears she and her husband Howard left Florida by train in the winter of 1918. If I was a politician I guess I could say I "misspoke" but truth is always better. Detailed record - Similar records
