I wrote down a few names of people I remember my grandmother
talked about.
Asked what she remembered in 1905 about Pacific Grove, she said:
Ray Steiner and Brannagan had a grocery at Forest and Lighthouse,
there was a tailor shop and curio shop. There was a pickle barrel
at the grocery which her sister tipped over .
E. B. Lewis and Mr. Van Norden were jewelers.
M.rs. Tilton was a friend of her grandmother
Miss Coniver and Miss Brown were school teachers.
Mr. Gilman owned the curio store and restaurant where Prim & Proper
is now located. Mr. Gilman had two daughters who were 16 or 17
when Mrs. Lyons was a little kid. One lived in Seaside in the last
twenty years.
Mr. Lweis had two daughters a little older then Mrs. Lyons. Ruth
Lewis is about 96 and lives behind St. Mary's -might be well to see
her soon.
The Pacific Grove Hotel had a grandstand, garden, paths, lawn.
Concerts were played on Sunday and they were later moved to the
Beach. They went to Mrs. Coopers house across the street on
Fountain for Sunday dinner aft er church. She cooked large platters
of food and you paid for dinner probably a El.'00 or $.75.
There was a stable on Fountain owned by Gardiner--a daughter still
lives here. The other stable was Mammoth, the night of the fire
my folks wouldn't let me go out, but I remember seeing everything
being cleared away and the street put through after that. Another
thing in front of the Pacific Grove Hotel there was a horse trough
and in below that one for the dogs to drink from.
Mother was born in a lighthouse below San Francisco city when
grandfather was the keeper .
