GALLATIN, ABRAHAM. Was born in Pennsylvania, September 18, 1818. Here he followed farming and boat building
until 1842, when he went to Illinois. After spending two years there he returned to Pennsylvania, where he resumed
his former business until 1852, at which time he came to California via New Orleans and Panama. We find him at
once in the mines, where he remained until 1868. He then made a trip East and traveled in several of the different
States for about two years, but finally settled in Napa City, Napa County. Here he resided until 1874, when he
moved to Pope Valley, where he resided until December, 1878, when he moved to Lake County and settled on his present
place, consisting of three thousand acre; located in Coyote Valley. Here he is engaged in farming and stock raising.
Mr. Gallatin married, October 18, 1870, Mrs. Slonecker, a native of Pennsylvania.
