ORVILLE E. HAYWARD, a farmer near Martinez, was born in Macoupin County,
Illinois, in 1852, a son of Ansel and Rebecca (Silsby) Hayward, the former a
native of Massachusetts, who died in 1862, and the latter a native of Illinois,
who died next year. Orville was educated at Blackburn University, Illinois, and
completed his education at the Pacific Business College of San Francisco, and
then served Lake & Stone as book-keeper in that city two years; next he was
employed as clerk and book-keeper by Osmas Hansen, of Oakland, for some time.
His health failing, he repaired to the mountains near Sonora and remained there
until the year 1882, when he located where he now resides, two miles from
Martinez, on the Lafayette road. He enjoys fair health and a pleasant home of
ten acres, where he is raising table grapes, Bartlett pears, etc.

  For his wife he married Miss Mary E. Bagge, who was born in Oakland, and they
have two children: Emilie O., who was born September 3, 1887; and Orville A.,
born May 14, 1890.
