"Aylmer DRULLARD was born in upper Canada,
February 28, 1832. When he was ten years
of age his parents moved to DuPage County,
Illinois, where he grew up to manhood.
April 13, 1849, he left his home for California,
made the journey across the plains with a
company of twenty-one persons, all told,
commanded by Captain Wilson, arriving at
Hangtown (now Placerville) September 18 (1849).
He, with another young man, left the remainder
of the party at the Twenty-Mile Desert
in Carsen Valley, and traveled on foot
the rest of the way. He worked for a while
with a man herding cattle, then went
to San Francisco, from there came to
Stockton and went to work on a farm,
where he remained six years, until he saved
up money enought to buy a claim of 400 acres,
situated in O'Neil township, and is now
residing on the Waterloo and Stockton Road.
He moved upon it the next fall, 1859.
His landed possessions amounted to 290
acres, which is as fine grain land as
can be found in this county, improved
with good buildings and in fact everything
that goes to make up a fine ranch.
During all this time there has been
but one failure in crops, which was in
1864; there was almost a failure
in 1871. He has been most successful in
the farming industry, which is mostly due
to his own good business management.
Politically he is a Republican, although
he has never taken an active part in politics.
He was married in 1862, in the month
of February, to Miss Elvira M. DODGE,
a daughter of Elisha DODGE of Illinois.
She is a native of St. Lawrence County,
New York; when a mere child her parents
moved to McHenry County, Illinois, where
she was raised. They have a family of
six children; three sons and three daughters.
They have lost two sons, the oldest of whom
died a the age of seventeen years."
