Additional Comments:

**Note - Applicant signs his name Mathias Lochbaum which is the way it is 
normally spelled in other records, not Matthias Lockbaum as written in the 
document.

Mathias married Eva Fink about 1860 most likely in New York.  They are living 
in San Francisco by 1865.   He dies there in 1871; Eva passes away on February 
14, 1929 in Alameda Co., California.
