             (deceased).  Was born in Germany, June 24, 1826.  When 
sixteen years of age he went to sea, which occupation he followed until 1849, 
when he came to California, and after spending four years in San Francisco and 
at the mines, came to Marin county and settled on a farm, consisting of three 
hundred and seventy acres, located about one mile from Novato, where he resided 
until he was inhumanly murdered, June 7, 1877.  The circumstances attending this 
foul deed will be found in another part of this work.  Married, July 8, 1864, 
Annie Brown, a native of Germany, who still resides on the farm.
