P. B. BRONSON.—He is the son of Marshall and Malita Bronson, and was born in
Susquehanna county, Pennsylvania, December 16, 1839. In 1857 he came with his
parents, via Panama, to California, settling at Rich bar, Plumas county, in May
of that year. Here he followed his trade as carpenter until the fall of 1859,
when he removed to Long Valley, Lassen county, settling on the Hood place. The
next spring he located and settled on a ranch in Beckwourth pass, Plumas county.
In 1863 he became justice of the peace, on the republican ticket, of Quartz
township in that county, which position he occupied until Lassen county was
formed, in 1864, which made him a resident of the latter county. He filled that
office in Long valley township, Lassen county, up to 1876. He is a member of the
Odd Fellows and of Lake Lodge No. 135, A. O. U. W. In politics, he is
republican. He was married November 18, 1880, to Miss Georgie Glascock of
Milford, who was born in Missiouri, October 11, 1860.
