Description
An account of the resource
Built in 1872, this home of George McCullough, pioneer lumberman, is reportedly the first residence in Fresno. Housing was scarce during Fresno's early years. Homes built during the 1870s were little more than simple frame cottages. Construction became more elaborate after the 1880s. It is known that William Betteridge built Fresno's first brick home in 1882, with five rooms and a big bay window.

Description
An account of the resource
On 16 February 1884, flood waters covered every street in Fresno. Floods threatened to wipe out Fresno every winter because Fresno was located in the sink of four creeks: Dry Creek ran just to the north of town ; Red Banks and Dog Creek merged in the flat lands to the east ; and Fancher Creek ran nearby with the center of Fresno as the confluent point. This photo depicts the situation on K Street with the photographer looking north from Fresno Street. The Mill Ditch is visible in the foreground on Fresno Street. This irrigation ditch was built in 1878 by Moses J. Church to power his Champion Flour Mill at the corner of Fresno and N Streets. Several narrow plank bridges are seen spanning the ditch. The first building on the right is the J. Williams Blacksmith and Wagon Shop. The next structure is the F. Banta Eureka Planing Mill. The steeple of the Methodist Church can be seen in the distance.

An account of the resource
The Fresno Weekly Expositor Newspaper first made its appearance in Millerton Calif. on 27 April 1870, founded by J.W. Ferguson acting as both editor and owner. Moved to Fresno in 1874 along with the county seat, located on J (Fulton) Street near the corner of Tulare. Became a daily paper in 1881 and moved into a new two-story building in 1888. After numerous ownership changes, a syndicate called the Fresno Publishing Company took over the newspaper in 1897, but the financial difficulties forced the paper to close on 1 September, 1898.

Description
An account of the resource
Untitled postcard containing five individual photographs of the five principal Fresno banks and their location. Fresno National Bank was organized on May 1, 1888 and located at the northwest corner of Tulare and J (Fulton) streets in a new three-story brick building erected at a cost of $70,000. It was purchased by the Bank of Italy on October 21, 1916. Peoples Savings Bank of Fresno was incorporated December 9, 1890 and opened for business in the Hughes Block on the northwest corner of Tulare and I (Broadway) streets. This three-story building was constructed by Thomas E. Hughes in 1888. First National Bank of Fresno was organized on March 16, 1885. In 1891 an ornate three-story building was built on the northeast corner of I (Broadway) and Mariposa streets. The bank occupied the ground floor, with professional offices on the upper floors. Bank of Central California was organized on February 21, 1887. The bank initially occupied this narrow two-story brick building on the south side of Mariposa Street, built for the bank by Louis Einstein, across the alley from Einstein's Pioneer Store, which faced H Street. Farmers Bank of Fresno was incorporated on March 8, 1882. Local history books do not identify the bank's initial location, but in 1889 the bank moved into a new three-story building on the corner of I (Broadway) and Mariposa streets. Mention of Fresno National Bank (now Bank of Italy) dates this postcard between 1916 when the transfer occurred and 1928 when the Bank of Italy changed its name to Bank of America. Some of the dates on this postcard don't seem to compare with any significant event.
