JOHN F. TRUMBLY, a successful farmer of Stanislaus county, California, is a
native of the Badger State, born in Monroe county, January 8, 1861. His parents
are Anthony and Fanny (Lebear) Trumbly, both being natives of the State of New
York and of French descent. They now reside in California, having come to the
State in 1890. They are the parents of ten children, our subject being the
seventh born.

   John F. Trumbly came to California in 1881. Having been reared to farm life,
he at once engaged in that pursuit, working for wages for a time before
launching out on his own account. He is now located six miles from La Grange,
near the Tuolumne river, where he rents 1,300 acres, which he devotes to
grain-growing and stock-raising.

   He was joined in marriage at Modesto, October 17, 1886, with Miss Florence
Blodgett, who was also born in Wisconsin. They have two children, Raymond and Eva.

   Mr. Trumbly is a stanch Republican, although he takes no active part in
political matters. He came to this State with no other capital save an abundance
of push and determination, and by his own industry and careful economy has
raised himself to the position he now occupies among the successful tillers of
the soil. It is not always golden opportunities that make men successful in
their undertakings. In this case it was merit rising superior to circumstances.
Mr. Trumbly is certainly entitled to credit for what he has accomplished,
demonstrating alike the capabilities of the country and the possibilities for
young men of push and enterprise.
