'Strength, perseverance and courage describe the life of one of Solano County's earliest African-American pioneers, Adam Willis.

Her story is a wonderful cavalcade of events and personal anecdotes before arriving in Vallejo in 1918, but since this is a local history column, I'll stick mostly to her life here in Solano County.

In my last column we saw that Markham had run away and was gone for about six months and had finally realized his dream to attend Vacaville's California College. During my continuing research about Markham, I found the following in notes supplied to the Vacaville Heritage Council by J. W. Hawkins: The reference isn't noted, but I suspect it came from "The Unknown Edwin Markham" by Lois Filler.
