ltlgto .... don't know where you or your side of the family are and you didn't list following Stephen who headed to California.   You still might be interested in this family foto in San Francisco 1915.  Sorry for my grandmothers use of Grandpa and Grandma to describe the foto

http://sparks-genealogy.blogspot.com/2010/01/panama-pacific-international-exposition.html

Also interesting the Denny connection in Seattle.  Our family lived in Seattle for many years and the women would spend winters in Seattle around the turn of the century while the men toughed it out in the Alaska gold rush

After Gustave Melsing and Elizabeth Schwerin Melsing arrived in America, they came directly to Gold Hill, Nevada where he worked as an accountant in the silver mines.   When the ore ran out and the silver mines closed down, they came with their five children to San Francisco, where he opened a confectionery shop at 3rd & Minna Sts.   It became famous for Melsing's rye bread.
