    Notes:

    "Beyond the Pinnacles, The history and folklore of Southern San Benito County,
    Ca."
    In about 1870 John brought his family from Pineville, Mo. to Tres Pinos, Ca.
    He was a wagon maker and blacksmith. He opened a little shop on the road below
    the flat where Tres Pinos is today. After the railroad arrived in 1873, Tres
    Pinos built up quickly around the track and round table locomotives. The old
    road in the river bed was changed to include Calleri, John Castillou, Tom
    Ferrando and Jack Etcheverry properties. The Southern Pacific Railroad Co.
    constructed a two-story hotel opposite the depot, the Tres Pino became a
    bustling shipping point for hay, mercury and cattle from the south.
    His son George, tells this story:
    The bandit Tiburico Vasques stopped at their home one morning when George was
    still a child in dresses. Tiburico was riding a big palomino horse and he and
    a campanion walked into the kitchen, sat down and George remembered that
    neither man removed his hat. George's mother, Charlotte, served breakfast, and
    as the visitors departed, Vasques said "Bueno, adios", and dropped a silver
    dollar on the table.
    The Prater family lived in Tres Pinos six years (until 1876), and then moved
    to Brown's Valley east of of Paicines, where they resided two years. After
    John died, Charlotte married Lorenzo Morelinis, and she and her children moved
    to a ranch on the San Benito River above Antone Frusetta's. The Morelinis
    lived there three years and then moved to "The Home Place" above James Canyon,
    where Charlotte remained the rest of her life.

    John is listed on a voters registration in Monterey Co.,Ca
    He died in Calif., his grave site is unknown but he was living in the
    Hollister, Ca. area. He is said to have died as a result of a horse kicking
    him in the head.
    His descendants live in the area around Hollister, Ca. (1994)
