A couple of years ago, I posted this request but never found the answer so, for the benefit of new members who might have old knowledge, I'm posting again: I have a photograph of my grandfather & friends that is mounted on both a postcard and a small oval pocket mirror.

Dear Listers-- Jennifer McCann did a beautiful job in her comprehensive report on the cemetery at the old Marine Hospital. She regularly spent time at California Genealogical Society with us, going through films of the surviving San Francisco death records, and also at San Francisco Public Library poring over the early funeral home records that recently were transferred there by Halsted-N Gray-Carew and English Funeral Home. She sent us (CGS) a copy and, I presume, SFPL and the several other places she wor
19. [CASANFRA] SF Gas Lamps [1]
I've been asked about the last two functional Gas Street Lamps in San Francisco - located on Scott Street between Bush and Pine Streets. Per the description offered, there is a plaque on the front of the house commemorating these Gas Street Lamps. On the ground next to these Gas Street Lamps is a cover plate that can be lifted revealing the valve that supplies the gas to these lamps. The cover around the flame (when lit) was made of plastic instead of glass and warped from the heat. One is missing.
