Christmas trees become tradition in 1800s / Delaplane, Kristin [266] [ECHOS-1995-266]
Information for this article came from the Solano County archives. Last in a series By 1877, there were beginning to be a number of family Christmas trees, and it was also noted that it was becoming a custom to have a public Christmas tree. Apparently the public tree was not located in a church, but in another building or hall. It was felt by some that this "public tree" made an ostentatious display of the holiday, at the same time recognizing that it did give the children a great deal of joy.
