FAMILY HISTORY.
You may keep track of your relatives and think you’re pretty
well posted on your family tree, but you probably have not gone
into the matter as thoroughly as has Harry Breed, an electrician
in Humboldt, Humboldt county. Breed has spent nearly 12 years in
tracing down family connections and looking into the farthermost
branches of his family tree. He now believes he has direct and
authentic data on 35,000 members of his clan. His unusual hobby
has called for research in every state of the union and has taken
him back in history to 1575.
