Does anyone know of a Ms. Livermore who worked as a missonary
in India, maybe around the 1900-1930. She had adopted my father
while he was a little boy. My father has passed away now and since
I am compiling a family history for my daughter, I would love
to able to go back as far as I could.

I moved here from Oakland in 1965. It was like moving from
Hell to Heaven. I have always been interested in the History of
Livermore. I hope Livermore will preserve as many historical sites
as possible. I really enjoyed your very informative and interesting
Web Site. Pauline Stewart

I was very happy to com across your site! I have been trying
to trace my family tree. My mother says that part of my family
originates in England from the House of Livermore My great great
(maybe one more great) grandmother was Stella Amanda livermore
She married Robert Christy SR. Does anyone know the 8 brothers
and sisters of Robert Thomas Livermore? or the names of his 8
children? Any information would be greatly appreciated. I am also
looking for a book called Livermores in america. Anybody seen
it before?

I believe Joesville was the little "camp" across
the street from the Rockhouse. The highway divided the two. Joesville
had a big house, later turned into apartments. It was surrounded
by little cabins--much like an early motel. This is not to confuse
it with Tubbsville. Joesville even had a small corner grocery
store.

It is a good website, but I think you may want to add something
in about the five prominent families (Livermore, Granada, Amador,
Alameda, and that one I can't remember) and about why certain
thing happened, like Alameda naming the city after his good friend,
Robert Livermore.

I visited your web site today as a result of looking into
Livermore's famous centennial light bulb, which was manufactured
by your Shelby Electric Company, ca. 1900, which I hadn't known.
Having lived most of my life in California, I've been well-acquainted
with the Livermore light bulb for probably more than 40 years.
I guess it can be said that a century ago, the Shelby Electric
Company turned out a quite fine and long-lasting product. Would
that we could say that about light bulb manufacturers one century
later. I had a most enjoyable visit to your web site and --- who
knows? --- might someday get to visit your nice lttle town in
person. Thank you for the experience.

My family loves your site. My husband's family has it's
roots going way back to early Livermore (The Armstrong clan).
My inlaws are deceased now, and our daughter is learning about
her heritage thru LHG, and all the wonderful parts of Livermore.
Thank you for allowing her (and us) to get in touch with our roots!
Would love to hear from anyone related to these families: Armstrong,
McKelvey, Hansen, Bell, Beck (all those in Janet Newton's book
about the Armstrongs Of Collier Canyon). Those are our family
ties. My husband's mom was Rosanna Hansen Stewart. Thanks!

Bonna Martin!! Where are you? I am looking for my best childhood
friend who lived in Riverside, CA from 1957 (2nd grade) to 1962
(7th grade). In 1962 her Air Force father was restationed and
the family moved to Livermore, then Dublin (or vise-versa) and
we lost touch. If anyone has middle school and/or high school
yearbooks I would very much appreciate any help in locating the
schools she attended so that I might find her in alumni or reunion
lists. She would have graduated in 1969 and the only address I
remember having for her is 8473 Newry Pl. Dublin, CA. She had
an older brother, Daniel Martin I think, and a younger sister,
Jan Martin. Bonna was born in 1951 and I miss her very much. I
have loved browsing this site and look forward to someday visiting
your historic town. It sounds so quaint and lovely. Thank you
in advance if you can help me find my friend. Sincerely, Wanda
