Santa Eulalia find historically significant / Bowen, Jerry [690] [WAYITWAS-2007-690]
In my last column I diverted a little from the story when the sink was identified as a sacrarium and helped identify the stone portion of the "Canevascini Winery" as possibly the original Santa Eulalia Chapel building and its significance as a historical site.

Faded Evidence of Former Winery Exists / Bowen, Jerry [684] [WAYITWAS-2006-684]
I briefly mentioned an early stone building on a small separate seven and one-half acre parcel of land belonging to Samuel Martin who built the Stonedene mansion in 1861 in my last article. I also speculated in previous chapters of this article this was also the actual site of the Santa Eulalia Mission and that one of Indians in charge of the rancheria/mission was Chief Solano and that it was here that he returned to live out his final days.

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.

Earlier Newspapers / Wichels, Ernest [781] [WICHELS-1964-781]
Like Santa Claus, the editor of an historical column has many helpers. Hardly a day passes that I do not receive some information which helps to bridge the gap between the past and the present.

Lonely historic site awaits much-needed help / Bowen, Jerry [830] [WAYITWAS-2008-830]
It lies on a windswept knoll above the confluence of the San Joaquin River and the Sacramento River. Slowly but surely, giant windmills move stealthily ever closer to the deteriorating wood shell covered adobe. Mold on one of the interior walls appears as a small sinister-looking waterfall from a leak in the roof.

Bitter Miners Find Golden Harvests in Suisun / Bowen, Jerry [816] [WAYITWAS-2008-816]
In 1849 the California gold rush was in full swing with people from all over the world headed to the land that was sure to make them rich. But not all were so inclined when they saw the fertile valleys of the Suisun. Others, not finding the riches they felt they so richly deserved for their arduous labor remembered the lushness of the valleys of Suisun they passed through on their way to the mines.

Historic sites hidden by a veil of the past / Bowen, Jerry [616] [WAYITWAS-2005-616]
