I mentioned this before but here it is again. The Marysville Packard Library has the California Room with lots of records of early Marysville. Great Registers, newspapers etc. They also have Earl Ramey's index to the early newspapers. A great source for Marysville and Yuba Co. research. Karen
I have a "guest book" that people signed when they visited a cottage in Chemeketka park in the Santa Cruz Mtns. owned by Walter and Louise McKelvey and son Leo who lived on Fruitvale Avenue in Oakland in the 1930 census.. I have no connection to any of this. Someone found the book a yard sale or ?? and passed it on to me years ago where it sat because the ability to track people hadn't developed as far as it has today. I read a lot of the "thank yous" in the book and figured out the McKelvey family names and then did a census search and found them. I'd love to pass this along to some descendant. The census shows the parents were originally from Canada.....born in the late 1800s. If you know where this needs to go I'd appreciate hearing from you and I'm sure the family would too.
