New Research for Team Parallel lives

OK, Dr. C and I have found a ton of new information regarding GFB. Neither of us has had any  time to process this info or really interpret it. I'm passing it along in it's raw form to you guys so you can get started sifting through it:

EDIT: AFB = Amos Foster Beardsley, GFB's father.

Could this be a reference to GFB's father?

AFB owned shares in the Penole Gold, Silver, and Copper Company

More evidence that AFB was a botanist of some regard. 

 Convention of Fruit Growers. Pretty sure this is Amos, even though it says "Mr. FA Beardsley"

Passenger List from Panama.

Another Passenger list. This one says FA Beardsley, so may not be our guy but I'm feeling pretty confident that he is.

Hoyt, Pidwell and Co. Wool and Hide advertisement. Not sure what to make of this. 

Pidwell and Co. The name changes.

J Street Flour Store. 

Cases of Smut (as in wheat)

Big Beardsley Mine. No clue if this is our family

Beardsley Mine history. Google Book.
