Hanford Morning Journal , March 11, 1923 
"OLDEST NATIVE DAUGHTER DIES, BURIAL TUESDAY.  Mrs. Sarah A. Farley, who is 
said to have been the first white child born in San Francisco, the wife of J. 
H. Farley of this city, died yesterday afternoon about [?] after 1 o'clock at 
her home at West Ninth street after an illness of some duration.  Mrs. Farley, 
who was aged 74 years, 3 months and 21 days at the time of her death, was born 
in the city of San Francisco when it was still known as Yerba Buena, on June 
21, 1848 and at her marriage moved to Visalia where she resided until 1894 when 
Mr. Farley opened his office here and his family moved to Hanford.  She was one 
of the well known women of this city and interested [?] welfare actively in 
many ways until a few years ago, when failing health kept her more closely at 
home.  Her recent illness has been short in duration, it is said, and only 
became alarming yesterday.  She is survivied by her husband, James H. Farley, 
and three children, George H. Farley of this city, Mrs. Ada J. Hornbeak of 
Porterville, and Ernest R. Farley of San Francisco.  A third son died several 
years ago.  She is further survived by two sisters, Mrs. Ella Malott of Santa 
Cruz and Mrs. Florine Foley of Fresno, and two brothers, Fred J. Hargrave of 
Oakland, and E. L. Musgrave of Riverdale.  Funeral services will be held 
Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 from the chapel of Russell & Lewis, and the remains 
will be escorted to Visalia, where at 3 o'clock interment will take place in 
the family plot in Visalia cemetery."
