1860s Denis J. Oliver Gold Rush 1849er San Francisco Painter Rancho Menlo Park Proprietor CDV
photo by photographer Edouarts 634 Washington Street San Francisco. Denis J. Oliver (1823-1886) after receiving news of the gold discovery in California, Dennis with John McGlynn and William F. White sailed for San Francisco, arriving there 156 days later. He immediately re-established his paint business in San Francisco in 1849, and despite a series of fires that destroyed at least two of his principal buildings, he prospered.
In 1854 Oliver began keeping a diary—the first entry is November 9th—which eventually grew to 14 volumes, now kept at the California Historical Society in San Francisco. The first volume contained some information on the land he bought in what is now Menlo Park. Faulty at right with paper erosion , dirty at back of mount.
