He had been on the river in a small rowboat towing a wood scow. The boat was discovered and in it was the man's lunch and other possessions. The wood scow was tied on the bank near the boat. It was feared that Cardoza had met with foul play and the mystery was never cleared till the bones were identified. No marks of violence were visible on the corpse and Coroner Rowe of Sutter county is of the opinion that the man died by drowning. - Cardoza, at the time of his death, was 45 years of age. He was a native of the Azores Islands.

CARLESON, CHARLES
Marysville Appeal - Thu 10/24/1912, p1 - General Debility The Cause Of His Death - Charles Carleson Passes Away At Hospital - Charles Carleson, a native of Sweden eighty-three years of age, died at the county hospital yesterday morning. The remains were taken in charge by Coroner Kelly and are now at the mortuary chapel on D street. The funeral will be held some time tomorrow if word is not received from relatives of the deceased in the meantime. - It will be remembered that about October 1 Carleson was found in the neighborhood of the Valley meat market slaughterhouse wandering aimlessly about. He was taken to the hospital and cared for, but on account of his great age and the fact that he had been exposed to the elements and evidently had been without proper nourishment for some time, he could not withstand the ravages of the disease that had set in. - Nothing is known of the antecedents of the deceased. He is believed to have been a pioneer of the state and to have come to California in the early days. He made his home in Butte county many years but is not known to have any relatives in California.

CASEY, JOHN
Marysville Evening Democrat - Wed 1/19/1916, p1 - Tragedy Occurs On Browns Valley Road - Supervisor John Casey and Miss Bessie Burris Drowned When Auto Plunged Down Embankment and Turned Over Into Irrigation Ditch; Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Charles Taylor Inside Closed Car But Manage to Escape and Get Help - One of the saddest automobile accidents to occur in this vicinity in some time happened about 6 o'clock Tuesday evening and resulted in the death of John J. Casey, Yuba County supervisor from the Browns Valley district, and Miss Bessie Burris, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Burris, well known residents of Browns Valley, and slight injury to Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Charles Taylor, the other two occupants of the auto. - The accident happened at a point on the Browns Valley grade about five miles north of Marysville, shortly after the automobile party had left this city on their return to their homes in Browns Valley. The automobile, a Ford-car, skidded off a six-foot grade, struck a slight rise, and turned over into a small ditch that is being dug in that vicinity. The two occupants of the front seat, Casey and Miss Burris, were pinned under the auto by the steering gear and the windshield, both their heads being under the foot of water which the ditch contained and before any assistance could reach them they had both drowned. Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Taylor, riding in the rear seat of the auto, escaped with a severe shock and a few minor bruises. - After Assistance - Immediately after the accident occurred, Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Casey, finding that they could do nothing for the two victims pinned under the car, started out for help. Mrs. Casey started toward Browns Valley and Mrs. Taylor started back toward Marysville. After walking about two miles, calling hysterically for help, Mrs. Casey came upon Frank Kupser, a well-known Browns Valley man, who returned with her to the scene of the wreck, but he found that he was powerless to do anything alone, and he went to telephone for assistance. In the meantime Mrs. Taylor located some foreigners but was unable to make them understand and returned to the scene of the wreck. - E. S. Austin, representative of the A. J. Marx Music House of Sacramento, and L. J. Francis, local representative of the company, came along in an auto, and found Mrs. Casey at the scene of the wreck, who implored them to do something, but when they attempted to lift the car up they found that more men were needed to accomplish anything, so they brought Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Taylor to Marysville and notified local authorities and a rescue party was detailed to rush to the scene, which they did in automobiles. - Kupser Gets Aid - When the rescue party from this city reached the scene of the accident, Frank Kupser, Frank Gregory, and Charles Elisalda had succeeded in righting the overturned auto and removed the prostrate forms of Casey and Miss Burris from underneath. Casey was dead when removed but there seemed to be some life in Miss Burris, but every effort to resuscitate her proved futile and when Drs. A. L. Miller and Everett Gray arrived on the scene they pronounced the young woman dead. - Byron Burris, father of the girl victim, arrived on the scene soon after Kupser, and the other men had removed the victims from beneath the auto. - Lost Control - According to the story told by the two women occupants of the car, Casey lost control of the car while in a rut, and the road being quite slippery in that part, it swerved to one side and the first thing the occupants of the car knew the machine started down the steep grade, and when it struck a slight rise at the bottom of the grade, turned completely over and landed in the ditch. - Mrs. Casey and Mrs. Taylor found the water surging up about them and fearing that they would be drowned, fought desperately for their lives and finally succeeded in tearing the storm curtains from the machine and gaining their freedom. They did not seem to be injured, so they made their way to the top of the grade and started for assistance. - Two Victims Drowned - Undoubtedly the two victims, Casey and Miss Burris, were drowned, as the wounds upon the bodies were not sufficient to cause death. Only a slight abrasion was found on the head of Miss Burris, while Casey sustained a slight bruise on one finger. - Immediately upon hearing of the accident, Coroner J. K. Kelly, together with his assistants, rushed to the scene of the accident, and after the victims had both been pronounced dead, Coroner Kelly took charge of the remains which were brought to Marysville, where they are now at the coroner's office. - The Ford auto which Casey was driving at the time of the accident was only slightly damaged, considering the fall over the grade. Aside from a badly damaged windshield and broken top, the car was in fairly good condition when it had been righted. It was removed today and brought to town for repairs. - Cause of Accident - There are many reasons vouchsafed as to the cause of the accident, but the most feasible one is that the driver lost control when he turned around to say something to his wife. The occupants were eating a lunch which they had with them at the time. When Casey turned around to say something he failed to keep the car in the road, and when it struck a sort of rut in the road the steering gear swerved quickly and the car shot down the embankment. - Casey and his wife and Mrs. Taylor and Miss Burris had been spending the day in Marysville at the home of Miss Iola Dunning, sister of Mrs. Casey, after bidding goodbye to Mrs. Taylor's mother, who had departed for San Francisco for a visit with friends. They left Miss Dunning's place at about dusk on their return to Browns Valley. - Supervisor Casey was 52 years of age, and was born and raised in Yuba County, where he had resided practically all his life. He was quite well known, and had many friends who will regret to hear of the sad affair. He was supervisor of district No. 4 for the past three years, and during 1913 served as chairman of the board of supervisors of Yuba County. He was a prominent member of the Marysville Lodge No. 783, B.P.O.E., Marysville Lodge No. 1, E. Clampus Vitas, and Marysville Parlor No. 6, Native Sons of the Golden West. He is survived by a wife, two children, three brothers and two sisters. - Miss Burris, 23 years of age, was quite a favorite among the younger social set of Browns Valley, and possessed a legion of friends who will mourn her loss. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Burris and has made her home with her parents at Browns Valley from girlhood. Besides her parents she is survived by two sisters and a brother.

CASEY, THOMAS
Marysville Daily Appeal - 1/7/1902, p1 - About "Tom" Casey - Something of His Life and Estate and Probable Disposition of Property - The brief announcement was made in Sunday's Appeal that "Thomas Casey, well known in Marysville and Yuba county, where he had large property interests, had died that morning at 2:15 at his home in Marysville township." - The news of his death reached this city just as The Appeal was going to press at 4 o'clock, and was, therefore, too late for a more extended notice. - The deceased was a native of the county Galway, Ireland, where he was born in 1832, and at the time of his death, which resulted from pneumonia, was about 70 years of age. He had been a resident of Marysville and vicinity since 1854. - Soon after his arrival to Marysville, Mr. Casey went to work for Paxton, Brumagin & Co., cleaning up around the bank. He was so industrious and trustworthy that John A. Paxton took an interest in him and invested his earnings for him. He next turned his hand to peddling water, which was a very profitable business in those days, and afterwards started a fish market on Third street, which he conducted successfully for about twenty years. His brother, Martin Casey, worked for him the greater portion of the time, and ran the market for himself for a short time. - The deceased eventually became the owner of 640 acres of land in Marysville Township, which he stocked, and also of 960 acres of stock range in the foothills, on which he kept his stock during the summer months. - He also became the owner of the "Casey row" on D street, the Kelly store-building, and several houses on Fifth street; the Meyers bakery-building, a two-thirds interest in the City Market, and some property in Chinatown. He was also the owner of property in Oakland, the value of which may be estimated at from $2000 to $5000. - To make a conservative estimate, the deceased owned property valued at from fifty to sixty thousand dollars. - During a recent visit to Oakland, he stated that he had deeded his property there to his niece, Mrs. C. Carn, better known in Marysville as Theresa Meaghter. He also stated that he had made out a deed for his two ranches in Yuba county to his nephew, Martin Joseph Nealon, who has managed the ranches for him for several years. - This would leave but the property in the city of Marysville to be disposed of, and it is known that there is a will in existence. He sent for his attorney last Saturday to make some changes in this document, but when the lawyer arrived at the ranch the deceased was not in a condition to transact any business as a change had come over his condition for the worse. - Mr. Casey was naturalized in the District Court of Yuba county on October 15, 1860. - He was popular with the young people whom he called his "kids" and would sing for them the "Old Oaken Bucket" or some other of his favorite airs. He was kind to those of his relatives that he believed were deserving of it, but lately neglected his own comforts. - The funeral cortege will leave his late residence at 8 o'clock this morning and proceed to St. Joseph's Church, where the services will be held at 10 o'clock. The interment will take place in the Catholic cemetery.
Marysville Appeal - 1/8/1902, p1 - Earth to Earth - All That Was Mortal of Tom Casey Now Rests in The Grave - Tom Casey was laid at rest yesterday in the family plot in the Catholic Cemetery. - Requiem mass for the repose of his soul was celebrated at St. Joseph's Church at 10 o'clock by Rev. M. Coleman, in the presence of many who had come to pay a last mark of respect to his memory. - The remains lay in a very handsome cloth-covered metallic casket. - There were but two floral pieces, but both were very handsome, and were the last tribute of respect from true friends. One was the familiar "Gates Ajar;" the other a large standing cross, with the emblem "At Rest." - The following gentlemen acted as pall-bearers: William Walsh, Louis Conrath, D. P. Donahoe, C. C.

H. Carlin. - There is a codicil attached to the will dated June 26, 1901, in which he appoints W. F. Kelly and Martin Nealon as his executors and the trustees of the trust therein created, and orders that they act and serve without giving any bonds. - The witnesses to the will which was made over fifteen years ago are E. A. Davis, residing at Marysville, and M. C. Dufficy, residing at San Rafael. - By the will he gives, devises and bequeaths to his executors and trustees all his property real and personal, wheresoever situated, and all moneys that he may die possessed of, in trust for the purposes and uses named. - After directing that the executors shall pay his funeral expenses; the expenses of his last illness; all other expenses incident to his last illness and burial, and all his debts, he directs that out of the balance of said trust property the executors shall pay the following sums: - The Bequests - To his brother, Martin E. Casey, the sum of $2000. - To his brother, Patrick Casey, the sum of $2000, in installments of $100, payable every six months after his death.

In case of her death before the said payments are completed, any portion of said sum remaining unpaid shall be paid to her son now living. - Should Patrick Casey die before the said payments to him are completed the will directs that any balance remaining unpaid shall be paid to Martin M. Casey and Annie Maher, in equal portions, in the manner provided. - Should Anthony Nealon or Martin Nealon die before the said payments to them, or either of them, are completed, the will directs that any balance remaining unpaid of such deceased one shall be paid to his issue, if any, and in the absence of any living issue, the same shall be paid in equal portions to Martin E. Casey, Annie Maher, Theresa Maher and Mary McCormack, or her said son, if she be not living, or to such of them as shall be living. - Whenever all of the foregoing payments shall have been made in full or shall have been fully provided for, the will directs that all the balance and remainder of said trust property, real and personal, shall be paid over and delivered to the said Martin E. Casey, if he is living; but in case he be dead, the will directs that the same be paid over and delivered to Annie Maher, Patrick Casey, Theresa Maher, Mary McCormack, Anthony Nealon and Martin Nealon in equal shares or portions. - Whenever any of the said sums of money above directed to be paid, shall be due and payable as specified, if there shall not then be in the hands of said trustees the necessary funds for making such payments, it shall be optional with them to sell any of the said property for the purpose of raising such funds, or to defer such payment to such time as convenience or interest may require. - Under the will Mr. Casey had appointed his brother, Martin E. Casey, John H. Jewett and A. C. Bingham as his executors without bonds, but last June he added a codicil appointing his friend W. F. Kelly, and his nephew, Martin Nealon, to act as executors. - As already announced in The Appeal, the deceased had deeded his valley ranch and his foothill cattle range to his nephew, Martin Nealon, with the exception of a small portion in which his brother, Martin E. Casey, will have a life interest. He also deeded to his niece, Mrs. D. Carn (Theresa Maher), his property in Oakland. - The bequests will probably be paid out of his city property, as it is understood the deceased had not much money on hand, and not many mortgages.

Daily Appeal 03/15/1876, p. 3 THAT MURDERED CHINAMAN We stated yesterday that a Chinaman had been murdered near the Union Flour Mills, on Bear river, and that Coroner Barnes would go there on Tuesday and hold a Coroners inquest. Mr. Barnes took yesterday mornings express train for Wheatland, and from that town went to the Union Mills in a private conveyance. On arriving on the ground where the dead Chinaman was found, he was unable to find any reliable testimony about the matter. Kotch Chow, a Chinaman supposed to be about 30 years of age, was found dead on Monday morning, about a mile below Stoddard & Bros mills, and near the mouth of Rock Creek, and no one in that vicinity knew anything about the man or the murder. A scar on the face gave the impression that he had been knocked down, and while prostrate his throat was cut by a knife which entered below the right jaw, and passed through the neck, the point ranging upward and coming out under the left ear. The only information obtained about the murdered man was given by a Chinaman in the employ of the Stoddards, who said that the deceased was a friend of his, and was charged by Chinamen at Timbuctoo with being engaged in kidnapping a Chinese woman from that town, and that he might have been murdered for his connection in that matter. Coroner Barnes concluded not to hold an inquest as it would only result in an expense to the county. The body was therefore placed in a paupers coffin and buried near where it was found.

COLFORD, JOHN
Marysville Appeal - 5/13/1905 - Captain Colford Passes Away - Just before "The Appeal" went to press this morning, word was received that Captain John Colford passed away at twenty-five minutes after one o'clock. Owing to the lateness of the hour it is impossible to give full particulars and details of his life, but it is known that he was born in Boston, Massachusetts, 67 years ago. He was the father of John, William, George, Louis and Charles Colford, and Mrs. Louis Brown. - Owing to sickness in the family the remains have been removed to the undertaking parlors of J. K. Kelly. - Funeral notice hereafter.
Marysville Appeal - 5/14/1905, p1 - A Good Man Has Gone Beyond - The Life of Captain John Colford Was One of Untiring Industry - Captain John Colford, a short account of whose death appeared in yesterday's "Appeal", was a veteran of the Civil War, and one of the most highly respected residents of Marysville. The angel of death came just ten days after his beloved wife was taken away from him and his demise was directly due to pneumonia which he contracted shortly after the death of his wife. The Captain and Mrs. Colford had spent many happy years of married life, and when his wife passed away on May 3rd, the old gentleman could not be consoled, but little did he know that in so short a time he would follow her to the spirit land. - John Colford was born in Boston, Mass., sixty-seven years ago, and his long life was an eventful one. While a young man he enlisted in the Navy of the United States and during the memorable Civil War he served under Farragut on the Neipsic. He took part in the battles of New Orleans and many other great struggles upon the water. He served during the entire war with great credit to himself and to the flag under which he battled. - Soon after the close of hostilities John Colford came to California to seek his fortune in the great west. Being an ambitious and industrious man he had no trouble in finding work and was always busy. Having settled in Marysville he built up a reputation as being an honest, straightforward man and he was much respected by all who knew him. - In July, 1872, he was appointed to a position on the police force of the city, and for about sixteen years served the city very capably. He was brave and his reputation spread until the undesirable element learned that he was a man to avoid. In the running down of criminals he was unusually active and during the time he was on the force made many good captures. - At the end of the sixteen years of faithful service as a policeman he was called upon to take another and even more responsible position, in which he was again serving the city. This time was as Chief of the Fire Department. For three years he held this position, at the end of which time he terminated his connection with the city by sending in his resignation. - Since that time, in 1891, he has acted as a special policeman and night guard in the Chinese quarters of the city. He has been a most faithful and efficient officer and was on duty almost every night from the time he took up the work until the fatal disease laid hold on his sturdy figure. - He was presiding officer of the Knights of Honor, and was a charter member of that order in Marysville. It is reported that the lodge in this city may disband, for the loss of John Colford has reduced the number of members until it is difficult to get enough to hold the offices. - In the passing of John Colford the city has lost a good citizen and a faithful officer. He was among the most widely known residents of Marysville. The members of "The Appeal" force will miss his always welcome face, as he used to walk in each morning just as the forms were being placed on the press. He was a very entertaining talker, and his wide experience and his travels had taken him to many lands, and he was perfectly familiar with China, India and many other foreign countries. Being an observant man he saw many things, and he remembered them for years, and "The Appeal" force has many times listened with the greatest pleasure to his accounts. - He leaves to mourn his death, five sons and one daughter; John, William, George, Charles, and Louis Colford and Mrs. Louis Brown. - The funeral will be held Monday morning. The cortege will leave the undertaking parlors of J. K. Kelly at 9:30 o'clock, and a requiem mass will be said at St. Joseph's church at 10 o'clock, and the interment will take place in the Catholic cemetery. The same gentlemen who acted as pallbearers at the funeral of Mrs. Colford will act tomorrow.
Marysville Appeal - 5/16/1905, p1 - Flags At Half Mast - Large Numbers of People Pay a Last Tribute to the Late Captain John Colford - Captain John Colford was laid at rest yesterday amid the tears of his many friends in the family plot in the Catholic cemetery and a brave man, an officer who served the city of Marysville faithfully and well, has gone to his eternal resting place. - The funeral cortege left the undertaking parlors of J. K. Kelly at 9:30 a.m. and proceeded to St. Joseph's church where requiem high mass was celebrated by the Rev. M. Coleman, the rector, at 10 a.m. There was a large congregation present to pay their l
