The January 2012 eNews, volume 6, number 1,  has been published and emailed to members and friends. As always, the eNews features timely information about the California Genealogical Society and our upcoming events. Each edition also includes Suggested Links From the Blogosphere and a photo feature: California Ancestors.

Member Grace Frontin contributed this month's photograph of her great-grandfather, Patrick J. White, and his family, of San Francisco.

The infant seated at right on the lap of Mary Jane (Kelly) White was the future police chief of San Francisco, David Augustus White, who died in 1920 while in office.
