I am enjoying reading about all the names that now seem familiar--even though they are not family. Today, there was the marriage of Sam Streig to Dora Drouillard. This is the first mention of the Streig family. Weird, because in all the issues, there should have been the births of about 5-6 children, and lots of other information. This note must have been inserted because of how highly Dora was thought of in the community. However, her real name was Jeanetty May BATES and she married Simon Drouillard in 1896. He died in Los Angeles on 31 August 1925 and on his death certificate, it stated that he was single. Nowhere could I find a divorce record from Dora. They, Dora and Simon, had adopted a niece of Dora's named Edna. Dora's divorce from Sam was final in 1929. She died in 1967 at the Mendocino State Hospital. Her SS-5 application listed her place of employment as the Don Ra Dae Hospital in San Francisco and that she was a practical nurse. Please, keep these articles coming. This is much more fun than reading our daily paper!!!
