| Notes | He was engaged in mining, following that business with varying degrees of success for nearly ten years. During this time he was located at Moore's Flat and at North San Juan. Later he settled on another piece of one hundred and seventy-five acres adjoining the National Ranch Grant, ten miles from San Diego. He cultivated a small portion of this in fruit, and remained on it for four years, during which time he acquired a title, after some difficulty experienced, some parties claiming it as a Mexican grant. In 1874, he moved to Cholla Valley. He was the first President of the San Diego Horticultural Society was one of the Directors and Vice-President for two years of the Consolidated National Bank and was a stockholder in the old San Diego Bank before the consolidation. | ||||
