Books
If you don't have a copy of your grandfather's book, "El Camino Real," easily found if you google it. Another option; "Artists in CA 1786 to 1940," by Edan Hughes. Again, Google this book title. Book review: "The monumental two-volume 1,250 page third edition contains 20,000 detailed biographies of artists who were active in California through 1940, thousands more artists than the second, and is unquestionably the finest reference of its kind ever written. Hughes stopped at nothing to obtain accurate artist information using books, newspaper and magazine articles, old art catalogues and gallery notices, death certificates, personal interviews with artists and artist descendants, and whatever other resources he could get his hands on."
Good luck with your search.
