THE GOLDEN JUBILEE Page Three Gould Name Nears BREAD-WINNER Possible Extinction George Sylvanus Geuld, the pa- triarch of the Gould clan of Cali- fornia, was true to his middle name by following the agricultural profession. He took up a home- stead in the Cholame Valley of southern Monterey County, fol- lowing emigration from Iowa. That was in the days between the end of the Civil War and the com- pletion of the Southern Pacific's coast line. The outstanding crop produced in the Gould farming ventures, however, was children-eight of them. The elder Gould boasted of 30 feet of sons, there being five of them-all six-footers. It would be expected from so noble a start that the Golden State soon would be thickly popu- lated by Goulds-but not so. From the five Gould sons, only four Gould grandsons have come: Phil, Jr., WilI, Jr., Fred, Jr., and Philip, the latter's brother. Thus far, with at least one of the grandsons already "out of pro- duction," there are but two Gould great-grandsons: Frederick III ("Ricky" ) Gould and Charles Phil- ip Gould III. And one of the grandsons (Philip) is as yet un- married. It looks as if the state, so badly threatened by a prospect- ive deluge of Goulds some years ago, can breathe more easily. If the grandsons couldn't ar- range for masculine progeny, the granddaughters had no such diffi- culty. Two of the first to try ( Hope Gould Robinson and Alta Smith Heringer) accounted for seven boys between them. Riddle: When is a Gould not a Gould?
