1919 "History of Freson County" by Paul E. Vandon
“Herman H. grew up on the Priest Valley ranch and from a boy learned to ride the range and to rope and brand cattle, at the same time receiving a good education in the school of his home district. Two years after his father's death, which occurred in 1898, he, with his brothers, Paul, Joseph, and Martin (as the Greve Brothers) engaged in stock raising and farming on the old home place and in time located a homestead on Salt Creek in Wartham Canyon, and this he improved and engaged in stock raising on his own account, using the brand H.N.
In Fresno. October 17, 1907, Mr. Greve was united in marriage with Miss Ella M. Grant, who was born in Martin Township, Allegan County, Michigan. Her parents, Jesse T. and Martha (O'Conner) Grant, natives of Pennsylvania, were farmers in Allegan County, where the mother died. Her father now resides in Fresno County. The two children born of this marriage, Mrs. Herman H. Greve and Clara G., Mrs. M.S. Greve, both live in Fresno County. Mr. Greve came to Fresno County in 1910 and seeing the value and importance of owning land he located a homestead... their present home on Salt Creek ...which is now well improved and where they have a comfortable home of 520 acres, beside Mr. Greve's old homestead adjoining the ranch. Besides this Mr. Greve leases land in Wartham Canyon upon which he raises grain. He has had much experience in road building and for several years has been overseer of roads, his district being from Alcalde to Monterey County line, a distance of twenty miles. To this position he gives the same close attention that he does to his own business and sees to it that the roads in his district are kept in good shape.
The result of the union of Herman Greve and Ella Grant is one child, a son, named Dale Herman Greve.”
