Grandfather's New Year's Eve
/
Wichels, Ernest
[778]
[WICHELS-1963-778]
We've reviewed the New Year's Eve celebrations of earlier generations of Vallejoans. A half century and more ago there was one program which was inevitable. This was the formal grand ball attended by all of the officials and leaders in the community, usually followed by a generous meal sometime around midnight.

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BITS OF NEWS ABOUT PEOPLE IN OUR PAST - Quite often the unpublished quirks or idiosyncrasies of individuals in our past have escaped historians or news writers.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..

Paddles To Polaris
/
Wichels, Ernest
[841]
[WICHELS-1965-841]
We, all Solano County citizens, live on an arm of one of the greatest harbors in the world! Navigable waters bound two sides of our county. And yet we find that the average Solano an seems only dimly aware of our county's heritage in waterborne traffic, and its past and present reliance on water "highways."

Carols And A Blaze
/
Wichels, Ernest
[846]
[WICHELS-1964-846]
In the days before automobiles, movies, TV or radio, many Vallejoans turned to their churches for Christmas Eve fellowship and entertainment. We chose 1878, at random, and here is what the weekly Chronicle of 86 years ago said, on Dec. 28:

Seals And Shoplifters
/
Wichels, Ernest
[845]
[WICHELS-1964-845]
Readers of earlier Vallejo newspapers saw items which seem strange to the subscribers of today, yet there is a great deal of similarity in some of the problems both then and now.

February Anniversaries
/
Wichels, Ernest
[787]
[WICHELS-1964-787]
Every day Is an anniversary of some person, some discovery or other event. These have varying degrees of importance. February reminds us of anniversaries because we celebrate the birthdates of Washington and Lincoln. But we are tempted this week to recall other February anniversaries which should interest many Vallejoans and Mare Island folk.

Other Days Of Mourning
/
Wichels, Ernest
[774]
[WICHELS-1963-774]
Vallejoans shared the grief of the world and of the nation following last week's tragedy. With heartfelt reverence, our citizens worshiped in their churches, closed shop, displayed the flag in mourning, and many unashamedly cried.

[843]
[WICHELS-1965-843]
Last Sunday a devastating tremor rocked Chile; on Monday, it was the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. We are in the spring period of past earthquakes in Solano and Napa counties. Most of them have been in this eight-week period of March and April.

More On Hospitals
/
Wichels, Ernest
[789]
[WICHELS-1964-789]
Last Sunday we discussed the hospital facilities or, rather, lack of such facilities available to Solano County and Vallejo residents form 1849. Today we will go into some detail concerning the medical and nursing care Vallejoans have had since that date.

Early Solano
/
Wichels, Ernest
[784]
[WICHELS-1964-784]
A common human weakness is to predict the future. Sometimes the vision we see in the crystal ball may, by coincidence, come true. The editor of the Vallejo Recorder, in July and August of 1867, published a series of articles on Solano County communities and speculated on their development.
