Dunleavy, James G.

James G. T. Dunleavy had a farm in the 1840s, on part of of what had been the Mission Santa Cruz farmlands. By 1866, he was no longer listed as a property owner in that area, and his former farm had been subdivided into many residential lots. Elihu Anthony enjoyed Dunleavy's hospitality upon his Santa Cruz arrival in 1847. In 1849, Dunleavy was elected to be a Santa Cruz delegate to the 1849 California Constitutional Convention, held in Monterey.

Two other things of note in this clipping: 1) "our new hall of records" is the 1882 Hall of Records (Octagon), and 2) the name of Harry [Henry] Speel is misspelled.
