GUS. ANDERSON, a farmer of Yolo County, was born January 13, 1831, in Sweden,
and sailed for New York in 1852. He lived there until 1859, and then came across
the plains and mountains to California, first locating in Butte County. In the
spring of 1860 he came into Yolo County, and was employed by the man who owned
the place which he, Mr. Anderson, now occupies. He purchased it in 1864, —160
acres of good land.

Mary Bopp, a native of Switzerland, and they have a family of five children:
George, Oscar, Andrew, John and Anna. Mr. Anderson is an industrious citizen, as
nearly all Swedes are.
