Notes:

James William Beaver

From Ross Williams:
	The story is that they were married in one of the old missions in Northern CA. Much of this documentation comes from the Beaver Family Bible. I do not know who is in possession of the original Bible... There is a discrepency in the birthdate between the gravestone and Bible entry for James William Beaver. I believe the bible date to be correct because it correlates with the marriage date of Henry and Lurana Beaver also in the Bible.
He was also a Union soldier during the Civil War and stationed at the Presidio in San Francisco according to Ross. There are apparently also pension papers available.
