/
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.

Bowen, Jerry
[565]
[WAYITWAS-2005-565]

[238]
[WAYITWAS-2004-238]

Vallejo had short-lived stint as state capital
/
Bowen, Jerry
[782]
[WAYITWAS-2007-782]
The next time you are in the area bounded by York, Santa Clara, Maine and Sacramento streets in Vallejo, you will be near a long-gone historic site. Back in 1852 a two-story building sporting two flags dominated a hill that was centrally located between those streets.
