The photographs and descriptions on this and following pages are taken from a file created by David G. Healy in 1996. (TO VIEW IMAGE FULL SIZE, SIMPLY CLICK ON THUMBNAIL.) Note: The following information provided by Virginia Douglas on July 15th, 2001:
From the back of the Van Eaton Santa Clara Home Photograph: " Family home of J.D. Van Eaton - l874 -l894. Inherited by Elizabeth B.Simpson.

Blanchard family: Mrs. Blanchard, Frank, Hiram,Estelle, Bowman, Sallie & Oliver (twins), Emma, May, Marcus, and Tom." I added Ray and Mom's middle names - I also think that Venti was John Van Eaton's middle name. |
