GEORGE GREENO.—This gentleman was born in Norfolk, Virginia, in April, 1824.
When nine years of age he went to sea, and followed it for fifteen years,
finally landing in California in 1850. He mined three years on the Yuba, and
then went to Plumas county, where he built the Mountain House, between Spanish
Ranch and Rich Bar. In 1857 he visited Honey Lake valley, and in 1859 located a
ranch of 160 acres fifteen miles south of Milford, in Long valley, and engaged
in stock-raising, with an unlimited range for his cattle. This has ever since
been his home. In politics, Mr. Greeno is a democrat. He married Margaret
(Wallace) Clark, of Susanville, born in Boston June 3, 1840. She was married
February 13, 1855, to M. L. Oakes, and again to C. B. Clark. Their children are
George W., born September 23, 1872; Annie Frances, September 15, 1874-Mrs.
Greeno's children by her former marriages are James M. Oakes, born in Boston,
January 1, 1857; Thomas A. Oakes, in Boston, February 12, 1858; Charles B.
Clark, in Butte county, California, April 25, 1861; Mary L. Clark, in
Susanville, March 10, 1867.
