Whether the dates on the obituaries list are print dates or death dates I've never been able to figure out. I also suggest you look in Gene Rose's book, "Reflections of Shaver Lake" because of the influence of the Musick family. The Fresno County Historical Society might be a good resource as well. There is a fairly large website for the MUSICK family, but I didn't look it over well enough to find out how much was about the Musick's of Fresno County. Check at the Academy Cemetary. And Shaver Lake has a historical society, although I don't know the extent of its holdings or publications. Tollhouse and Shaver were inextricably connected. Keep me posted how it goes! -deb

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GW.2ADE/728.1.1 Message Board Post: Sandra... have done a little more homework on this family. Looks like Harold is a son of George Washington Hensley and Annie Pennington. Still wondering who the other fellow is. LISTED:HISTORY OF FRESNO COUNTY with BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. by Paul E. Vandor, Publ. Historic Records Co. Los Angeles, CA, cc:1919: GEORGE WASHINGTON HENSLEY.----The seventh son in a family of nine children, George Washington Hensley has the further distinction of being a native son of Calaveras County, Ca., born February 15, 1857. His father, John Jackson, and mother, Margaret (Murray) Hensley, were among the intrepid pioneers of '53, who braved the perils and hardships of a journey with ox teams across the wilderness that intervened between their old Missouri farm home and the golden sands of the promised land. The family, consisting of parents and six children, followed the northern route via Salt Lake City and the Humboldy River, to Calveras County, Cal., where they established their home. Their experiences in their new home were similar to those of other pioneers of the early days - - hardships, endured, obstacles overcome, and the gradual betterment of conditions as the country grew and developed. Most of the early pioneers were interested in mining, for a time at least, and Mr. Hensley was no! exception. After devoting some years to the mining industry, in 1859 he moved to Deep Creek, Tulare County, and engaged in the cattle business. In the fall of 1861 he settled on the Fresno River, in what was then Fresno County (now Madera County), bought a tract of unimproved land and raised stock. He was supervisor of Fresno County one term, on the Democratic ticket. He died December 23, 1902. His wife, a native of Missouri, preceded him six years. She died at the old home, October 11, 1896. her father, the Honorable Thomas Murray, was active in public affairs in Missouri, and at one time seved as a member of the Missouri legislature. He accompanied the Hensleys across the plains in 1853 and settled at petaluma where he engaged in farming. Of the nine children comprising the Hensley family, a daughter died at the age of five. The other members of the family are: Thomas J., a stockman in Madera County; Samuel P., residing in the same county; Abel H. and W.C., who ! reside on the old home place in Madera County; P.J. and G.W. residents of Fresno; John M., ex-sheiff of Fresno County, residing in Madera; and Martha A. deceased. George W., being the seventh son of his father, was called by his family and acquaintances Doc Hensley and is still known by that name. From a lad he learned the care of sheep, with his father. In 1868 the flood caught all of his father's sheep below Lane's bridge and all were drowned, but he started again and made a success. Doc Hensley, when seventeen years of age, engaged in the shep business for himself in Tulare County, near Tipton. In 1877, the dry year was disastrous and he lost all. He then worked with the California Lumber Company as foreman till 1880, then located in Madera and later followed draying and teaming for two years. Still later he ran the Club Stables on the spot where the Fresno Auditorium now stands. In 1888 he started boring wells and has continued that occupation for the past thirty ! years. He is the oldest in this line of work in Central California, if not in the state. He dug his first well on N Street, Fresno, and and also dug wells at the County Hospital, the County Court House, the Fresno Fair Grounds and the Jersey Farm Dairy. He bored the first oil well bored in the Kern River District, Kern County, for the Fresno-Bakersfield Oil Company. He bored the first well for irrigation and installed the first pumping plant in Fresno County. Since then this method of irrigation has become universal. He is quite ingenious and has made a number of improvements in well-boring outfits and machinery, one of his inventions being a perforator which has proven very successful and is now in general use. In partnership with his brother, Abel, he owns the old home ranch in Madera County, one-half section of land devoted to stock-raising. George W. Hensley was united in marriage with Annie Pennington, a native of Roseburg, Ore., whose father J.B. Pennington, cr! ossed the plains in the early forties with Whitman, settling in Oregon. Her father was a pioneer and Indian fighter; he died while with our subject, aged over nenety-nin years. Mr. and Mrs. Hensley are the parents of six children; George W., Jr., a business man in Clovis; Warner, with the Fresno Fruit Growers Association; Mrs. Elsie Obanion, on the home ranch; Lillian, Mrs. Robinson of Fresno; Harold, with the California Fruit Exchange and who served in the United States Navy; and May, graduate of Fresno High Scholle, Class of 1919. In his fraternal affiliations Mr. Hensley is a charter member of the Fresno Lodge of Knights of Pythias.

Surnames: [3108 Luzon, Fresno] Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GW.2ADE/1021.1 Message Board Post: 3108 Luzon St., Fresno, no longer exists. It was on the east side of Luzon, the second building south of Shields Avenue, and was public housing, located in Hammer Field Village, between Peach and Clovis Avenues. It was near Airways Golf Course. During WWII it was military housing. These were two-story barracks buildings containing small apartments. Some of the other units were one-story duplexes. It was closed in the summer of 1962 and removed to make way for the extension of the Fresno Air Terminal runway. I lived in 3108-K, which was on the first floor, at the north end of the building designated as 3108. My aunt and her husband, Don and Dorcas Willhide, had the same apartment in the mid-1950s. Others who had lived in that building included the William C. Jeans family, in 3108-G. I can furnish a picture or two of the building and you can find articles with photos on the closure of Hammer Field Village in the Fresno Bee for May 27 and July 29, 1962. The pictures ! include two of the buildings, probably 3136- and 3108-, and one of a lovely tree-lined Luzon Street. There is also an article about Gladys Harland, the manager, in the July 5, 1962, Bee. It reveals the sense of community Village residents had felt. You can find Hammer Field Village on pre-1962 Fresno maps. All the streets were given historic WWII names, such as Cassino, Leyte, etc.

    1. [CAFRESNO] Pre-1905 weekly update
    2. >Hi all; >Seems that our transcriptionists want San Francisco County done as much as the rest of us. Currently in Transcription is Vol. 1, 2, 3, M, and P is just going out the door. There seems to be much confusion as to what records we are using. Some of them are death registers (just like the other counties) and some of them are Mortuary Registers. The mortuary registers give the same info that the death registers do. All registers are for the "City and County of San Francisco". > >The other counties are moving right along as well. Several more counties have their records ordered and a few more are in transcription. We have some of the smaller counties getting transcribed while we are working on the larger ones. We have gotten book two of Los Angeles County online this week and hope to have more of it online shortly. For an update on what is happening for any given county, take a look at the website <http://www.rootsweb.com/~cabf1905>. For those counties that are pending donations, look at the donor page and that will tell you which ones are open for sponsorship, funding and support. > >I would like to take a moment to thank the genealogical societies that are supporting us. Santa Barbara is funded and being transcribed by their genealogical society...all we had to do is supply the records for them. The Livermore-Amador Genealogical Society is funding and helping with the transcription in the Alameda County records. Those records have been ordered and should be in shortly. The Tehama County Gen. and Hist. Society has offered help in Tehema County and there are several others on the verge of coming through for their counties as well. > >For those of you that are considering volunteering for transcribing, there are a couple things that need to be understood. These records are over 100 years old and not always the easiest to read. They are hand written and some of them are in the older style of writing. This makes them more difficult. Also, some of the records don't copy really well. We do the best we can with what we have to make it easier. This is definitely a "Labor of Love" and those that are working on these deserve and extra pat on the back for what they are doing. Because some of the people have expected something simple to do, we have sent out some batches and then never heard from the volunteers again. If you volunteer and discover that you cannot follow through, this is not a problem, but please send the copies back to us as there are additional costs entailed in recopying the records. This can be saved. > >This is not to discourage those that wish to volunteer, but to educate them on what to expect. We have back up for what you cannot read and we help whenever we can or whenever you seem to be having a problem. Right now...we are lucky as some of the records (like the ones we are distributing right now) are extremely easy to read and transcribe. > >A special thanks goes to Steve Melton...our computer wiz, who has managed to stay on top of all the technical dealings with getting this online. He keeps the site updated weekly with periodic changes during the middle of that week. Steve, we love you and you are wonderful. > >Laura Melton, Steve's wife, has been keeping everything organized and sending out templates and instructions to all the new transcribers, as well as dealing with some of the other technical problems that have come up. In between reunions, baby showers and the like, we have managed to keep her pretty busy as well. Thank you Laura for all you do...which is way too much to even start to mention here. > >For all those that have helped to support this project, in addition to listing all of you on the donor page, I would like to say an additional "THANK YOU". Without you, this project could not come about. Between copies and postage, it is amazing how rapidly the costs add up. Donations can be sent to me. Full accountings are kept of all costs and income to the project. > >Well, will keep you updated on the new additions to the website as they come along. Thank you all for the good words, support and help. Till next week... > >Donna Bradley >Project Coordinator >P. O. Box 391368 >Anza, CA 92539-1368 > > >
