The following are excerpts from History of Washington Township, a book I bought from EBay..... SPENCER The first school in Irvington was a private one taught by M. M Spencer, in a small building (now a granary...note time is circa 1904 when written but is referring to period circa 1860s), owned by G. M. walters. There were eight pupils, but as Mr. Spencer received but twenty dollars a month, without the privilege of boarding round, his position could scarcely have been a very lucrative one. FISCHER Between 1820 and 1830, Alexander Forbes, an Englishman, Edward Fischer, a German, and William Gulnac and Jedediah Smith, Americans, tarried near Mission San Jose. Mr. Smith alarmed Father Dugan, who had him thrown into the San Jose jail. He was later released and sent on his way to oregon. Later withthe coming of more Americans, the story of modern Mission San Jose begins.....

(three of the chidren with parents- the other three not born yet) Joe (Joseph) Ough and Tabatha Bairds children- 3 boys, three girls born in the 1870's and 1880's. John, Joe, Norval, Suzy, Dolly, Pearl Also with them was a 65 year old Thomas Ough and a 72 year old Robert Patten. (1870 Alameda County Census) Any hints on were to look further appreciated.

I'm here too!! :-)) Just kinda quiet. Would dearly love descendants/information/ connections/most anything on: Gardner A. B. SPENCER, born abt 1866, CA, maybe "son of Dorcus Spencer, the great W. C. T. U. worker" (???). Lived at 1324 Weber Street, Alameda, on the 1920 Census. Married to Edna M. FISHER 24 Dec 1890 in Woodland, Yolo Co, CA. (age 24) Children: Marjorie E. SPENCER (abt 1902-) Kenyon G. SPENCER (abt 1905-) Father "born England", mother "born Rhode Island (1920 census) Occupation: was stockkeeper for an "Elevator Co" (1920 census) It's Edna (FISHER) SPENCER that I'm related to. I've found her maternal grandmother - long a mystery-woman to the family - and would love to share with her descendants. Any information would be terrific! Regards, Carolyn Carter Johnson (mailto:rhunterg@ix.netcom.com) aka the "other" Carolyn :-)))

This Ferris Simons fella you speak of, any idea of the time frame he may have been in Hayward, by chance did he have a wife, kids, or a father?
