The railroad ferry 'Solano' still lives
/
Bowen, Jerry
[107]
[WAYITWAS-2002-107]
A few weeks ago, I wrote a story about the first run of the railroad ferryboat, Solano. From that article I received a fair amount of e-mail and queries about the ferry. One of the most interesting was from a Thomas Rubarth in Arizona who had done considerable research on the Solano.

History Overlooked Some Vacaville Names

Rico, John
[936]
[RICO-1979-936]
BITS OF NEWS ABOUT PEOPLE IN OUR PAST - Quite often the unpublished quirks or idiosyncrasies of individuals in our past have escaped historians or news writers. It should be interesting to go back, pick out some of these people, and relate a few squibs which made these people a bit unique to their neighbors and friends. Constable Joe Stadtfeld is mentioned in this article..

Cityhood of Suisun petitioned
/
Bowen, Jerry
[820]
[WAYITWAS-2008-820]
In my last column I talked about nearby Cordelia receiving a post office in 1865 because it was on the stage route from Benicia to Sacramento and Suisun received its mail from that source until receiving its own post office in 1887.

[709]
[WAYITWAS-2007-709]
A few weeks a go I received an e-mail from Arden Lites who lives in Sebastopol. She told me that her mother, Doris Mann, had found an album of photos in her attic with the name, "Floy P. Weeks, Green Valley School, 1915-1956," engraved on the front cover.

Faded Evidence of Former Winery Exists
/
Bowen, Jerry
[684]
[WAYITWAS-2006-684]
I briefly mentioned an early stone building on a small separate seven and one-half acre parcel of land belonging to Samuel Martin who built the Stonedene mansion in 1861 in my last article. I also speculated in previous chapters of this article this was also the actual site of the Santa Eulalia Mission and that one of Indians in charge of the rancheria/mission was Chief Solano and that it was here that he returned to live out his final days.
