EDWARD REASBECK

   As a citizen of progressive spirit and good business ability Mr. Reasbeck has
attained both prosperity and influence during his long residence in Yolo county,
his many friends and associates fully appreciating his qualities of honor and
manliness and his example of public interest. Born November 3, 1842, in
Pomerania, Prussia, Mr. Reasbeck was educated there and later became a railroad
employe. After fifteen years of faithful service he decided to leave his native
land and cast his fortunes in America. He landed in New York City in 1882, and
from there came to Woodland, Yolo county. Here for two years he engaged in
farming and fruit raising, and then removed to the foothills of Butte county,
where he purchased thirty acres, which he still retains. In 1905 he took up his
residence in Winters, where he owns one and three-ninths acres, upon which is
located his present comfortable residence.

    In 1866 Mr. Eeasbeck married Miss Helena Neamann, also a native of Prussia,
and to their union two children were born: William Carl Theodore, a fruit grower
near Winters, and Maria Wilhelmina Johanna, also a resident of Winters.

    Mr. Reasbeck is a stanch Republican, prompt to aid all public movements of
worth, and as an active member of the Christian Church of Winters takes a
prominent part in the betterment of social conditions.
