Part 2-Spanish Troops Marched In / Bowen, Jerry [673] [WAYITWAS-2006-673]
When I ended my last column I said, "Second-Lieutenant Gabriel Moraga with seventeen soldiers and an auxiliary force of Christian Indians of unknown size attacked the Suisun force of 120 fighting men on May 22, 1810 near Rockville." Here again is a misconception of history perhaps read out of context. It wasn't at Rockville. It was at or near today's Suisun City.

Twists and turns on the trail of bygone days / Bowen, Jerry [721] [WAYITWAS-2007-721]
History is a dynamic subject with many traps regarding accuracy along the way. A lot of items related to history in Solano County have popped up lately, so, I thought that I would take the opportunity to talk about some of those bits and pieces.

Buildings That Are Old, New / Wichels, Ernest [807] [WICHELS-1964-807]
Several days ago the Casa de Vallejo was heavily damaged by fire. The blaze was confined to the wooden, or eastern portion of the structure. The younger generation is undoubtedly of the opinion that this has always been a hotel-but less than 50 years ago it served an entirely different purpose.
