  Carl P. Rush, (deceased). Was born in Germany, June 24, 1826. When sixteen
years of age he went to sea, which occupation he followed until 1849, when he
came to California, and after spending four years in San Francisco and at the
mines, came to Marin county and settled on a farm, consisting of three hundred
and seventy acres, located about one mile from Novato, where he resided until he
was inhumanly murdered, June 7, 1877. The circumstances attending this foul deed
will be found in another part of this work. Married, July 8, 1864, Annie Brown,
a native of Germany, who still resides on the farm.
