    WILLIAM GORDON.
    As a representative of a pioneer family, there is no name better known in Napa County than William Gordon, a resident in Gordon valley, named after the family. Mr. Gordon was born in Toas, N. Mex., September 27, 1833, and when seven years of age was brought to California by his father, William Gordon. The latter was a native of Ohio, of Scotch descent, who came from New Mexico by way of Arizona on horseback to California. He remained in Los Angeles until the spring of 1841, then with others went to the northern part of the state, crossing Carquinez straits in a rowboat and swimming their horses behind them. On reaching the northern side they engaged some Indians to pilot them up the bay and Napa river. Arriving in what is now Napa County, they camped under some large sycamore trees on the present site of George Yount's home and for about a year the elder Gordon engaged in farming on a small scale, raising some cattle and feed and produce for his own needs. From this location he removed to what was afterwards named Washington, the first County seat of Yolo County, situated on the banks of the Sacramento river. Here Mr. Gordon met Captain Sutter and was engaged by the latter to construct a mill at that place, he having told Sutter that he was a mill­wright. During the construction of this mill, which was operated by horse­power, Mr. Gordon made his home in Sacramento County, on the opposite side of the river, and crossed to and from his work daily in a canoe. For this labor Mr. Gordon was given forty-two head of cattle (cows and heifers) in lieu of money.
    The next move of Mr. Gordon was made two months later, when he went to a location northwest of what is now the city of Woodland and here he secured a grant of three leagues of land and settled down to farming, which continued his occupation until his death. As one of the early pioneers of California, he had to undergo many privations and hardships in establishing a home and, like the majority of those men of that period, aided in all movements that had for their object the development of that section of California. William Gordon, of this review, accompanied his parents on their migrations in California and received such educational advantages as they were able to give him and, when old enough, assisted with the work about the ranch. After he was old enough to conduct independent farming operations. he settled on Cache creek, where he remained two years. In 1862, he settled in Gordon valley. where he has twelve hundred acres of land. which he secured from his father and which was originally part of a Spanish grant. Here Mr. Gordon has a valuable property, which yields him a substantial income annually. This has been developed to its present condition by its owner, and it is conceded to be one of the most valuable properties in the entire valley. There are two hundred acres improved in orchard, consisting of apricots, peaches, prunes, oranges and almonds, one of the largest orchards in Napa County. His orange grove consists of one acre and beautifies his yard and its fruit, raised without irrigation, is of superior quality. Thirty acres arc in hay and the balance is used for pasture land for his cattle and horses, about ten head of the latter being kept for use on the ranch. All of the improvements on the place have been placed there by Mr. Gordon. He has erected several sets of buildings, commodious houses for his sons and daughters, who are all living on the ranch, and to whom he leases the property on shares, he having retired from active farm work. Ample facilities have been provided for caring for the fruit, including a dryer and an almond huller for their own use, besides which they take care of their neighbors’ almonds. This ranch is watered from the Gordon creek, which flows through the center of it, and withal it might he considered one of the show places of Southern California. Two lofty oak trees, supposed to be about two hundred years old, mark Mr. Gordon’s place of residence and stand like sentinels over his home. Besides these trees, the yard is decorated with ornamental shrubbery and flowers, giving it the appearance of a typical California city home.
    In Napa, June 18, 1861, Mr. Gordon married Juliette Chapman, a native of Connecticut and a daughter of Levi Chapman, who came to California in the early ‘50s, and was engaged in mining until his death. Of the children horn of this marriage we mention the following: George E., who is farming a part of the old home place, married Clara Leonard; Frank L., also interested in farming on the old homestead, was road-overseer for several years; he married Nettie Gosling and has two children ; William H. married Rosa Chapman; Sophronia became the wife of W. A. Clark; and Loleta married Thomas H. Loney. The sons were educated in the public schools and in Napa College, and have been able assistants to their father in the development of the ranch. Each of the children has inherited from their parents those dualities that have given them a place with the representative people of their County.
    Ever since locating in Gordon valley, William Gordon has aided in its development, assisting to construct roads, organized the Gordon school district and served as trustee for many years. In politics he is a Republican. although has never been an aspirant for office. His public spirit and regard for the welfare of the people have been frequently demonstrated and now in review­ing his life work, as he looks over his broad possessions he recalls the time when he was engaged in mining during the exciting period of 1848-9, when they were washing out their gold and often would get as much as $50 or more in one pan. He compares his present condition, when he is assured of an annual income, to the precarious occupation that he followed as a young man. Vr. Gordon is a quiet, conservative man, and while he has always worked to advance his own interests, has never neglected the duties of a citizen."

    "Capay Valley, the Land & the People"Ada Merhof, pg 50-51., also p 354

    The following excerpts were taken from "History of Yolo County, California, It's Resources and It's People", William O. Russell, editor, Woodland, California, 1940.

    William Gordon was born on the frontier in Ohio territory of Scotch forbears. While still a boy, he moved to Jackson County, Missouri, which had only recently become part of the United States, and which was the home of the frontiersman, Daniel Boone. Boone urged all young men to go to California. "It is the paradise of this continent!" The old man urged to the time of his death. In the middle 1820's Gordon established headquarters along with several partners at Taos, New Mexico, and engaged in the Rocky Mountain fur trade until the horrors of Indian warfare ended his career as a trapper. He remained on the frontier in New Mexico and was associated with Kit Carson, Jedediah Smith and other mountain men. By 1841 he had married a native girl and acquired a family. He had difficulties with the Mexican government's supposition that he and his Americano friends were supporters of the Texas filibuster and planned to make New Mexico part of the United States. In 1841 they came to California by way of the Santa Fe Trail The California authorities ignored the warnings of the New Mexican government and granted Gordon and his partners a 48,000 acre Rancho La Puente where they established the town of El Monte, the first agricultural town in California, now a rich suburb of Los Angeles. There were twenty-five men in the party, four of whom were heads of families: Gordon, William Knight, Workman and Rowland. The following year they returned to New Mexico for their families. Gordon and Knight married sisters and Knight's oldest daughter, Mrs. J. W. Snowball recounted the trip. "The children of the train were carried over deserts and high hills, through deep canyons, and dense forests, in baskets swinging on the sides of gentle ponies. A basket hung from each side of the horse with a child, awake or sleeping safely tucked away. Occasionally the children climbed on the pony's back, or jumped to the ground to walk.

    William Gordon ,William Knight, and J. R. Wolfskill, who married Knight's eldest daughter, Carmelita, came north together. It seems that Americans who married Mexicans were especially favored in grants. Gordon set himself up as overlord of Rancho Guesesosi on Cache Creek and Knight claimed title to Rancho Carmel on the Sacramento River. Wolfskill was overseer on his brother's Rancho on Putah Creek across from the present town of Winters.The Spanish "rancho" was a community of its own, with any number of adobe houses, a certain number of overseers and a vast number of Indian retainers, engaged in the raising of stock.

    On 27 January of 1843 Governo Micheltorena granted William Gordon a rancho of two leagues of land in Capay Valley, assessed value of $11,000 with taxes of $107.49 in 1850. Here his first wife died in 1845 and he lived the life of a bachelor for ten years before marrying Elizabeth Corum. His eldest daughter, Isabele, and Nathan Coombs rode two mounted horses to Sutter's Fort and were married by Captain Sutter. She was just 14 years old. They returned to the ranch arriving about midnight and partook of a bridal feast of cold beef. Shortly after, Coombs purchased a Napa Valley ranch from Salvador Vallejo and they went there to live. Nathan Coombs took part in the Bear Flag Filibuster in 1846 under Knight's leadership. Gordon never took part in the Usurping of California nor the events that led up to it.

    In 1851 William Gordon bought land in Napa County. It was named Gordon Valley after him.
    In Yolo County he gave aid and comfort to many settlers suffering hardships on the trail from Oregon and Missouri. His place of frontier hospitality was a place of refuge for many old friends and new who traveled through the area and it is mentioned as a stopping place, sometimes for months, sometimes for years, in the many Yolo County Histories. The Grigsby-Ide imigrant train of 1845 stayed at Gordon's for part of that winter. The land was mostly used for grazing stock, but in the year 1844, William Gordon and William Knight were first to plant grain in the county of Yolo. Gordon also introduced hogs to the county that same year. In 1845 he harvested seven acres of wheat and
    five acres of corn by using the water from Cache Creek which flowed from Clear Lake. William Gordon was Justice of the Peace of his precinct, the Capay Valley in1851.

    Some of the younger members of Gordon's family emigrated to Yolo County from Jackson County, Missouri in 1855 and temporarily occupied a log house on Gordon's property. A Mrs. Grayson was with them.

    Gordon came to California with nothing and built an estate out of perserverance and a willingness to undergo untold hardships. He retired about the time of the Civil War and moved into Lake County to spend the remainder of his life in his favorite sport-hunting. He died 3 October 1876.

    The following excerpt was taken from the book, "Historic Spots in California", by Mildred Brooke Hoover, Douglas E. Kyle, Ethel G. Rensch:
    Within what is now Yolo County, nine grants of land for permanent settlement were made by Mexican authorities between 1842 and the American conquest in 1846. Only five of these titles, however, were later confirmed by the United States government.
    William Gordon, a native of Ohio who brought his family to California with the Workman-Rowland party in 1841, settled on Rancho Quesesosi in July 1842. This pioneering venture was located on a grant of two square leagues bisected by Cache Creek west of what is now Woodland. (The boundaries can be followed on County Roads 94B, 19 and 87 and SR16.) "Uncle Billy" Gordon had been a trapper and hunter in New Mexico, "rough, honest, and hospitable." His place on Cache Creek became a "general rendezvous for settlers and hunters" from 1843 to 1846. James Clyman, in his diary for July 12, 1845, noted that at the time of his visit, Gordon was the only permanent settler on Cache Creek. On this rancho the first wheat in Yolo County was grown. In a primitive building one mile from Gordon's home, the county's first school was started in 1847 with an enrollment of eight pupils. Gordon sold land and water right to James Moore, who began construction in 1856 of the first irrigation dam and ditch system to utilize the natural water supply of Cache Creek, which flows out of Clear Lake in the mountains of Lake County.
    Rancho Quesesosi, more commonly known as Gordon's Ranch was sold in 1866, when William Gordon moved to Cobb Valley in Lake County, where he lived until his death in 1876. All that remains today is a family cemetery situated north of Cache Creek, near the former homesite on County Road 19 and marked with a plaque in 1948 by the Native Daughters of the Golden West.

    CALIFORNIA PIONEER REGISTER AND INDEX 1542 - 1848 page 165 Gordon (Wm), 1841, nat. of Ohio, who became a Mex. citizen in N. Mex., where he married Maria Lucero, and came to Cal. in the Rowland-Workman party. iv. 277-9. In '42 came north to Sonoma, original passport. in my collection; and in '43 was grantee of Quesesosi rancho on Cache Cr., becoming the pio¤er settler of Yolo Co. Here he lived till about '66, then moved to Cobb Valley, Lake Co., where he died in '76, at the age of 75. His wife died in '44, her sister being the wife of Cyrus Alexander; and in '55 G. married Elizabeth Corum. One of his daughters, Mrs Sarah Ingraham, died in Gordon Val. '68; another, Isabel, was the wife of Nathan Coombs. 'Uncle Billy' had been a trapper in his early years, and continued to be fond of the hunt in Cal.; a rough, uneducated, honest, and hospitable man. In '43-6 his place on Cache Cr. was a general rendezvous for settlers and hunters, and is oftener mentioned than any other place except Sutter's Fort and Sonoma. It was in the vicinity of the modern town of Fremont. (my note: not Fremont, but Woodland) Portrait Yolo Co. Hist., 26; ment. iv. 573, 672; v. iii. 672.

    An exerpt from "California Inter Pocula" by Hubert Howe Bancroft, p 629
    John C Murphy one day innocently borrowed without permission a horse belonging to William Gordon, a strong-minded magistrate of Yolo County. Hearing of it, the justice sent the constable after Murphy, who was brought before Gordon, tried, convicted, and sentenced to be hanged that afternoon. The magistrate was in earnest; and it was with the utmost difficulty, and only by appealing to his sense of fairness, and to his reputation as a magistrate in criminating a man where the judge was prosecuter, that delay was gained. Finally the case was referred to another court, and the prisoner discharged, greatly to the disgust of Gordon who immediately resigned office, affirming he would no longer be judge where he could not administer justice.

    Maria Isabella Gordon Coombs (3rd grader portrayal of Her)

    My name is Maria Isabella Gordon Coombs. I was born in New Mexico about 1831 and came west with the Rowland-Workman Party in 1841. My father is a famous fur trapper and we traveled the southern route to California across Arizona. My mother’s name is Mary Jane Lucero Y Tapia Gordon and my aunts’ names are Rufina Lucero Alexander and Carmel Lucero Knight. I am the daughter of William Gordon who owns an important ranch and gathering place along Cache Creek/Yolo County. Before I turned 15, I got married to Nathan Coombs at Sutter’s Fort. Nathan and I became important residents of Napa County where we owned a large ranch. Nathan was a veteran of both the Revolution of 1845 and the Bear Flag Revolt.

    The story about our wedding says that we were so poor, we had no shoes and had to share the same horse to get to the fort. Priests later discovered that I was married in a non-catholic ceremony and they wanted to charge Nathan $300 to recognize the marriage. Nathan and I refused to pay. We later became well off and had many children.

    HON. FRANK L. COOMBS.
    Of the many progressive citizens of Napa county there is none better known than Frank L. Coombs, who, as the incumbent of various positions of trust and honor, has borne a distinguished part in state, national and international affairs. Not alone through his labors in the state assembly and the national halls of congress, but also through his representation of the United States in a foreign empire, his name is entitled to perpetuation in the annals of his country. He was born near Napa, on a ranch owned by his father, Nathan Coombs. December 27, 1853, and was educated in the local schools of the county. Later he entered the Columbia Law School of Washington, D. C., from which lie was graduated June 10. 1873, and during the same year he was admitted to the supreme court of Washington and the supreme court of California. Early in 1876 lie opened an office at Napa and at once took an active and leading position among the young attorneys of the town. In September, 1879, lie was elected district attorney of Napa county, on the Republican ticket, and re-elected in 1882. holding the office two terms. He was elected to represent Napa county in the legislature for the sessions of 1887. 1889. 1801 and 1897. In 1891 and 1807 he had the additional honor of being chosen speaker of the house. In 1802 President Harrison appointed him United States minister to Japan, where he represented our nation with tact and ability. Returning to the United States in 1893 he resumed his professional labors until 1899. when he was appointed United States attorney for the northern district of -California, which position he filled two years. In 1901 lie was elected to represent his district in congress. On the expiration of his term of office, in March, 1903, he resumed the practice of law in Napa and has so continued up to the present time. While in public life his name was associated with the principal events in public affairs. He always fought for reforms. While minister to Japan he secured action from the imperial gov­ernment restraining the immigration of Japanese laborers to America, this being the initiative in this direction. While in congress it was largely through his work that the present Chinese restrictive measures were shaped. From him came the idea of prohibiting the Chinese from going to our new possessions and usurping the fields where the natives were to be shown the new roads to progress. The present policy of returning the insane and criminals to their own country was first formulated and suggested by him in the plat­form of the Republican party adopted in the state convention at Sacramento in 1900.
    December 27, 1876. Mr. Coombs was united in marriage with Isabelle M. Roper, daughter of Foster Roper, of Boston, Mass., where she was born and reared and educated in the local schools, after which she attended Mount Holyoke Seminary, where her education was completed ; later she taught in the Boston public schools for a time. Of this union there are three children : Nathan F., the present district attorney of Napa county; Amy and Dorothy. The elder daughter, Amy, married Harry Dunlap, son of Sheriff D. A. Dunlap, in 1909. Fraternally Mr. Coombs is a member. of the Elks, the Odd Fellows and Eagles, and Native Sons of the Golden West, and in the latter order has been honored with the office of grand president..
