    Kerckhoff-Cuzner Mill & Lumber Company Records

    Manuscripts

    This collection consists of correspondence, business records, and maps; the majority of which deal with the purchase of Boschke's Island (or Smith's Island) by the Kerckhoff-Cuzner Mill & Lumber Company from Albert and Martha Ellen Boschke. There were subsequent legal complications regarding this purchase with the Southern Pacific Railroad Company and the Banning Company, primarily Joseph Brent Banning and William Banning (1858-1946). The dispute between the various parties dealt with the purchase of the island and of how much of it belonged to the respective parties. A small part of the collection deals with a bridge the Kerckhoff-Cuzner Mill & Lumber Company wanted to build from Boschke's Island (or Smith's Island) across the Wilmington slough or inner bay of San Pedro to the mainland.
