Silkworms, name 'Davisville' meet their fate / Delaplane, Kristin [259] [ECHOS-1995-259]
Information for this article came from the Solano Genealogy Society and the Yolo County Library. Fourth in a series. A school was somewhat established in Davisville's first year when the children attended classes in a small building. As there were more students than would fit in this structure, the students took turns learning their lessons; thus, half the students would be standing outside.

Meet the famous owner of Green Valley Country Club / Dingler, Nancy [465] [RETROSPECT-2001-465]
Have you ever noticed how many great public buildings started out as magnificent homes before their conversion? Such a building is the current Green Valley Country Club.
