Narrative

[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 1, Ed. 1, Tree #3991, Date of Import: Oct 25, 1998]
John Nicholas Bailhache (1828-1902) was the eldest son of Nicholas and Ruth Bailhache. He went to California during the gold rush days, but did not mine for gold very long. In 1883 he married Josefa Fitch, daughter of Henry Delano Fitch, a sea captain, and Josefa Carillo. Josefa eloped with Henry, rather then marry the new governor of Alta California. Her sister Francesca married Gen. Mariane Vallejo. The sisters apparently lived not far from each other, for Josefa Bailhache visited her aunt quite frequently. John and Josefa had ten children. Among their descendants is Charles Arthur Bailhache, a little younger than Norman Ormsby.
Among some old letters supplied by James Cummings are a couple written by John Nicholas Bailhache. One of these letters was written to his sister Drusilla, and one to their mother, written in 1862. A partial quote from that letter: "And dear Mother, if we should never meet again, know that it was not my fault, but my misfortune, and that your 'Darling Boy' carried with him in his heart of hearts, all the grateful remembrance, love and affection merited by a kind, gentle and affectionate Mother. To you, I owe all that I am, or expect to be. The lessons you taught me in youth, are fresh in my memory and govern the acts of my life. I (have) never done a wrong that your memory did not reproach me for, nor a just act but that its approval seemed to come from you. I feel and acknowledge the service your counsel has been to me, and shall endeavor to perpetuate your memory still further by instilling it in my children."Could any mother want a better tribute?
