SANFORD E. BEACH is one of the energetic and representative business men of
Calexico. He has, by hard work and good judgment, made a success. He is one of
the well known progressive and public-spirited citizens of Imperial County. His
birth occurred in Canada, August 24, 1855, a son of Solomon and Jennett Beach,
both natives of Canada. His father was a farmer and one of the well known men of
his community. Mr. Beach's parents are both deceased. Sanford E. received his
education in the public schools of Canada. He started out in life at an early
age and followed various vocations. He worked at the carpenter trade for some
time and then took up farming. He followed mining and in 1897 he removed to
Yuma, Arizona, where he engaged in ranching and was in the stock business. For
five years he was identified with the C. D. Company. He then returned to Yuma
and ranched for three years, when he disposed of his ranch holdings and in May,
1915, removed to Calexico. He is now the proprietor of the Calexico Hotel, one
of the best hotels and most modern in Imperial County. In politics Mr. Beach is
a Republican. He has never aspired to office and can always be counted upon to
support the best man. Mr. Beach was married to Willahmana Reider in April, 1912,
a native of Germany. Mr. Beach on February 15, 1918, took over the Studebaker
agency, with offices in El Centro, under the firm name of the Imperial Valley
Auto Company.
