Hello, I am looking for any information on the ROTHS family that were pioneers of the BROWNS VALLEY area. I have a Ralph Wilber Roth of NAPA CA b. 1899, married to a FERN LOIS GUNN. Ralph's parents were CHARLES JOHN ROTH b. Napa CA and HARRIET EASTMAN b. in Anaheim CA. So the name that could possibly appear in any Yuba Co. records could be Charles John ROTH. Please contact me if you find any names familiar. Thank you, Debbie [email protected] Genealogy Researching Surnames: FRALEY (NC,IL), HENSON (IL), DAVIS (KY,IN,MO), SMITH (NC,MO), POTTS (KY), HOLLIMAN (TN,MO) My FRALEY Family Photos - http://www.iltrails.org/jackson/fraleyphotos.htm My daughter EMILY'S 2 websites - http://www.geocities.com/petzlovr http://on.to/DisneyMagic

Posted on: Yuba County, California Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/Yuba/395 Surname: Cole, Hayes, Raymond ------------------------- I am searching for any information regarding the family of my Grandmother, Ruby Naomi Raymond, born Jan. 6, 1913 in Marysville, Yuba County. Her parents are unknown. Her mother reportedly died of TB in the mid 1920s. The family story has that Ruby spent some time in a Catholic orphanage in Marysville, but this is not known for certain. She was raised by her grandmother, Perlina possibly Hayes or Cole. Perlina was at one time married to William Harrison. Ruby Raymond had two brothers, Earl J. Hayes b. 1901, and William Auburn Raymond, b. 1915. I haven't found much to go on and would greatly appreciate any help.

For anyone who might be able too, the dedication and unveiling of the Veteran's Memorial for Yuba County will be September 23rd at 10am. After a ceremony, the unveiling will take place. To view a list of names that will appear on the memorial here is a link to the Yuba County Rootsweb site. http://www.rootsweb.com/~cayuba/cemetery/vetmem.htm Please contact me if more infomation is wanted on the soldiers. I do have additional info and some pictures available. A similiar event will take place for Sutter County as soon as a date is chosen in the next few weeks.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: {not a subscriber} re: Sutter/Yuba counties Date: Wed, 13 Sep 2000 06:52:48 -0700 From: Michael White <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Linda, It would certainally be possible that a Marysville birth record could have been filed in Sutter county (although it should have been in Yuba) - but not in your case. Sutter Co. births start about 1872. Even though Yuba Co. births started being recorded in 1850 - often the early records are not as well kept. Your best bets are to look in newspapers for the time. It is tiring work - but sometimes you hit gold. Try the Sutter Co. Library - they have a nice card index to old local newspapers (if I am not remembering the right library - someone else can correct me if I am mistaken). You might also try church records if you can find out what church he belonged to (if it was a church that believed in child baptism). Also, Check the deeds for Sutter and Yuba counties looking for a Garrett in the 1860s time frame. [As for census records - I have done entire surname searches for an ancester for the 1830-1860 census in AL, and still have not found the home for one of my ancestors! - You might have to check all of the Garretts in CA (and even OR and NV!)] A last thing to try is look through the probate indexes of Sutter and Yuba counties (or anywhere else you think your Thomas lived) and look for a probate record for Garrett. Then you have to wade through the probates hoping to find a mention of your Thomas. Well, you certainally have your work cut out for you. I just hope Garrett is really his name and it wasn't changed or something!

Marysville is in Yuba County, the county seat. Yuba City is in Sutter County, the county seat. Both cities are separated by the Feather River, which runs between them. Any birth records for Marysville should be in Yuba County. Hope this helps you out.

Posted on: Yuba County, California Biographies Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/YubaBios/35 Surname: Rackerby, Adams, Albert, Clark ------------------------- PAUL A. RACKERBY - An all round progressive citizen, Paul A. Rackerby has made a success at farming and mining and for the past eight years has served as deputy sheriff of Yuba County. Born in Sutter County near Knight's Landing, October 12, 1879, he is the eldest son of William Martin and Ruth (Adams) Rackerby, both natives of Missouri. William Martin Rackerby arrived in California in 1849, having crossed the plains with his parents, Joseph and Cynthia A. Rackerby, when nineteen years old. He engaged in mining at Georgetown for one year and then tried farming on Cachez Creek in Yolo County. In the early fifties he was interested in the first quartz mine in Browns Valley. In Marysville, William Martin Rackerby and Miss Ruth Adams were married; and five children were born to them: Undine, the wife of G. L. Albert; Vesta, the wife of A. E. Clark; Paul A., of this sketch; Wirt, deceased; and G. C. Rackerby. The family removed to Marysville in 1881. There the father was engaged in the real-estate business for the following three years, after which the family removed, in 1884, to Hansonville, where he was a merchant and rancher and was the postmaster. In 1892, Mr Rackerby petitioned to change the name of the post-office to Rackerby, the present official name. The mother died on December 25, 1901, and the father passed away in Marysville in 1909. Paul A. Rackerby began his education in the schools of Hansonville; and later he attended school in Chico. Mr. Rackerby has spent many successful years in placer mining in the Yuba foot-hills. In 1913 he purchased property at Rackerby, where he has since built a comfortable home. For the past seventeen years he has been affiliated with Brownsville Lodge No. 283, I. O. O. F., of which he is a Past Noble Grand; and he is also a member of Pine Forest Rebekah Lodge, No. 222, Brownsville. For the past eight years he has served as deputy sheriff of Yuba County; and on April 6, 1923, he was appointed a trustee of the Hansonville school district, and is serving as clerk of the board.

Posted on: Yuba County, California Biographies Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/YubaBios/34 Surname: Gurney, Androus, McKinney, Stubbs ------------------------- LEO B GURNEY - As president and general manager of the Brown's Valley Irrigation District, Leo B. Gurney is well known in this section of the valley; and his efforts have been instrumental in the permanent settling of much desirable land in the Loma Rica, Glen Olive and Sunnyland districts, all fed by the Brown's Valley system. A native son of the county, he was born in the Buckeye district on the Benjamin Gurney home place, September 17, 1881, the youngest son of Benjamin and Euretta (Androus) Gurney, who settled in Marysville in 1863. The father engaged in the profession of teaching during most of his lifetime, his death ocurring in 1898; while his good wife passed to her reward in 1916, aged sixty-nine. Leo B. Gurney received his education in the Yuba County schools, graduating from Marysville High School in 1899. In 1911-1912 he attended the University of California farm school at Davis, completing the courses in scientific dairy and animal husbandry, giving special attention to dairying and irrigation under Profs. L. M. Davis and S. N. Beckett. Since 1908 Mr Gurney has served well the interests of Brown's Valley Irrigation District, as its president and manager, excepting two and a half years; and in this work his studious application to this branch of agriculture has been of great benefit to the ranchers in the district, dependent in these modern days almost wholly on irrigation for the success of their crops. In addition to his public work, Mr Gurney has developed the eighty-acre ranch he owns, his portion of the estate of his father; and he has found the application of his university studies of real value here also, using scientific methods in carrying on the ranch operations. The marriage of Mr Gurney, in Sacramento, August 19, 1910, united him with Miss Ethel McKinney, born in Wheatland, a daughter of the late Rolin McKinney and Dora (Stubbs) McKinney, pioneers, dating back to 1862. The father died in 1922; his widow survives, and resides in Oroville. Six children have blessed the union of Mr and Mrs Gurney: Marjorie, Dorothy, Richard, Alice, Curtice, and Eunice. Mrs. Gurney taught school nine years before her marriage. With her husband she is interested in furthering the development of their section of our wonderful State. Mr. Gurney is a member of the Yuba County Chamber of Commerce in Marysville, and of Loma Rica Center of the Yuba County Farm Bureau.

Posted on: Yuba County, California Biographies Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/YubaBios/33 Surname: Gurney, Androus, Buckner, Rees, Young, Null ------------------------- ELMER E GURNEY - Born near You Bet, Nevada County, August 27, 1862, Mr Gurney is the son of Benjamin B and Euretta (Androus) Gurney. His maternal grandfather, Henry Androus, settled in the Yuba foot-hills in 1860, and preempted 160 acres of land seventeen miles northeast of Marysville; and Benjamin Gurney bought an adjoining ranch of 160 acres. Benjamin B Gurney was born in Marion, Mass., of English parents, and came to California via Panama. He mined for a time, after which, from 1859 to 1860, he clerked in Wagner's book-store at Marysville, and then engaged in mining at You Bet, Nevada County, in 1865 returning to Marysville as clerk in Wagner's book-store. In 1867 he began teaching in the Marysville schools, becoming principal of the primary department at the school on B Street. In 1879 he moved to his ranch in Olive Hill District, but continued to follow teaching till his death in November 1899. His widow survived him till January 10, 1916, passing away at the age of sixty-nine years. They had two sons, Elmer E. and L. B. Gurney. The vacation periods of the family were ususally spent on sojourns in the high Sierras, as the father was a frail man and had been advised by medical men to seek the mountain climate as a means of keeping in health. The old Fritz ranch was purchased in 1879; and that remained the family home for many years, until the death of the mother. Elmer E Gurney accompanied his parents to Marysville in the spring of 1865 and after finishing his schooling he became the rancher for the family, managing the home acreage until 1901, when he purchased his present ranch of ninety acres. He is now planning to set out much of his fine ranch to fruit. The land has been devoted hitherto to dairying and stockraising; but it is especially adapted to trees and vines, and the contemplated development will add much beauty and productiveness of the holdings. Mr Gurney well recalls his younger days as a resident of this section, then almost all open range with scarcely a fence in sight. Always an advocate of all possible advancement for the district, he spent four years in office as a director of the Brown's Valley Irrigation District and has been a sponsor for good roads in this part of Yuba County. The marriage of Mr Gurney, which occurred on May 10, 1894, at Marysville, united him with Miss Sarah Buckner, a daughter of J C H and Martha (Rees) Buckner, born in Virginia and Wales respectively. The father came across the plains to California in 1852 and after mining for a time, became a farmer at Eagleville, Modoc County. Sarah Buckner was born at Eagleville and was educated in the public schools and at San Jose State Normal School (now San Jose State University). She was a teacher by profession. Six children have blessed their union: Mrs Lorene Young, of Long Beach; Earl; Mrs Ruth Null of Pomona; and Chester, Gwendolyn and Robert.

Posted on: Yuba County, California Biographies Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/YubaBios/32 Surname: Wilcoxon, Smith, Horton, Milligan ------------------------- NOAH J. WILCOXON. - With what propriety the good people of Sutter County, ambitious at all times to secure the best of public service, and willing to bear whatever reasonable burden of expense, attention and labor are necessary to attain the desired results, may rejoice in the administration of the County Hospital, those familiar with the life and self-sacrificing work of the superintendent, Noah J. Wilcoxon, well know. A native of Yuba City, he was born on January 26, 1876, the son of Benton and Mary Susan (Smith) Wilcoxon. Benton Wilcoxon came here in 1853 with his brother; but after the lapse of a few years, he recrossed the great plains to the State of Missouri, there married, and soon after brought his bride over the plains to California. He took toll for a while on the old Simpson Bridge, one of the first bridges over the Yuba River, at Marysville, and then farmed near the Buttes; and later he moved to Yuba City and engaged in business. He died in 1886, having completed a useful life; and his good wife survived him about five years. Noah Wilcoxon attended the grammar schools of Yuba City, and what preparation he did not succeed in getting during his school days, he obtained in the school of experience. For twenty years he was employed in the canneries of Yuba City and Marysville, working up to foreman, and learned to do everything there was to be done there, except the duties of superintendent. He was then janitor in the First National Bank of Yuba City for ten years. Whatever he did, he tried to do well. In June, 1918, Mr. Wilcoxcon was appointed superintendent of the County Hospital, and the fine hospital has been finished and occupied since he came here. There are forty-six beds in the hospital, and the institution has an average of thirty-eight patients. In many respects, the present status of this institution is largely due to Superintendent Wilcoxon, although he has a staff of assistants of such experience and capability that he is justly proud of them. Mr. Wilcoxon was married to Miss Elsie Horton, born in Butte County, the daughter of Dwight and Harriett (Milligan) Horton, and a member of a very interesting pioneer family. Her father came to California when he was nineteen. Mrs. Wilcoxon is a graduate nurse of Fabiola Hospital, Oakland, and is thus able to be of professional assistance to the superintendent. She has been appointed matron of the hospital by the board of supervisors. There is a daughter, Marjorie, by a former marriage. Mr. Wilcoxon is a Democrat, but he is broad-minded, especially when it comes to supporting local candidates and measures where partisanship might defeat the ends desired. He belongs to Yuba City Lodge No. 185, I. O. O. F., in which he is a Past Grand; and he is also a member of the Woodmen of the World, the Rebekahs, and the Live Oak Gun Club. Mrs. Wilcoxon belongs to the Eastern Star and the Rebekahs. Source: "THE HISTORY OF YUBA AND SUTTER COUNTIES, CALIFORNIA" by Peter J.

Marysville has always been in Yuba County, not Sutter and Yuba City is in Sutter, not Yuba, Confusing? Rosemary

Hello, With the recent posting regarding the Spence family, it was mentioned that Marysville was in Sutter County and Yuba City in Yuba County. What is the chance that a birth record from Marysville might be in a Sutter County holding?? I am looking for the birth record of my Ggrandfather, Thomas S.

Darlene, Re Markey family. I am interested in an Australian born Markey. He was James Owen Markey born 1866 at Kyneton, (central goldfields Victoria), and died 1930 East Melbourne. He was a son of Patrick Markey and Carolan Catherine. James was a prospector whose mining work I have been following but so far I have not located his descendants and am about to check his probate file for any lead. He had brothers Patrick John and Joseph and sisters Elizabeth and Catherine Alice. I would not know if his father had arrived from US. Damien Hynes As a PS I am in the throes of compiling a list of known arrivals from the Californian goldfields and would ask you if it is possible to have this list of maybe 30 names checked over against surviving records in California/US. Maybe census or other available records to bring more of the chase by these individuals into perspective. Remember the rushes here began in 1851 with the first arrivals in 1852 from the west coast and my work is into the earlier 1850's so there may not be much to help in view of this short time span. One sometimes suspects that the odd fellow may have clear out from family and that not all were single men as is commonly supposed. This approach could widen any searching. -----Original Message----- From: Darlene M Parissi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, August 27, 2000 4:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CAYUBA] Spence Quite a few of the Cemeteries in Yuba and Sutter Co. are online.
