Where was the nearest Veteran's Hospital to Shasta Co. in the 1920s? William Henry Mott, b. 1841-1847 (depending on to whom he was fibbing about his age) was a Civil War vet who died in a VA home or hospital. He is thought to still be alive during WW1 but we don't know what became of him. One granddaughter thinks he died somewhere in Soouthern CA. and another remembers something about a Veterans home. Is there a 1890 Union Veterans Census available for Shasta Co.?

Also, we are looking for the date and place of the divorce of William Henry Edward Mott and his wife, Nancy M. Hatler, who separated in about 1890. The had lived in Shasta Co. and had several children there:

• Philip H.
• Addie A.
• Electa A.
• Clarence E.
• Georgie (f.)
• Margaret E.

I am researching the St. John family and the Decker family. It is my understanding from an obituary that the St. John's were relatives of my great great uncle, John Decker, and his brother James b. 1836 d. 1911 reputed to be the largest man in northern California. Any information would be a great help.

I am looking for any information on David Jones who lived in Shasta County late 1800's to possibly the mid 1900's. He had a brother, George Alexander (G.W.) Jones who lived in Yolo County at around the same time period, who later moved to El Dorado Co in the early to mid 1900's.

One of his daughters was going with my grandfather, Clarence Congrave Hardwick, who later married my grandmother, Emma Irene Kramer, on November 1, 1906. Any information on these people would be of great help. Thank you.
