Katherine Cebrian

“One of the workers who came to Larkmead in the early days was Douglas Pringle. He and his wife, the ‘grande dame’ of San Francisco society, Katherine Cebrian, had bought nearby Schramsberg, which had been abandoned for many years. Their idea was to resurrect the old facility but first they needed to get some practical experience. My mother remembered Douglas as a willing learner, whose wife would appear at lunch time driving a yellow Rolls Royce and bringing a fine picnic lunch complete with linen, china and silverware. Everyone else ate their lunches from their lunch pail. I have a ledger page which lists Mr. Pringle’s name and the paltry sum he earned is recoded there.”

Robert Louis Stevenson and Lillie Hitchcock Coit

During the summer of 1880, famed author Robert Louis Stevenson moved from San Francisco to Napa Valley with his new bride, Fanny Osbourne. He was hopeful that warmer temperatures and Calistoga’s healing mineral baths could help him recover from several near-death illnesses. They resided in an abandoned mining camp at the foot of Mt. Saint Helena. Stevenson and Lillie became fast friends, bonding over their love for literature and worldly adventure. The Stevensons visited Larkmead often, entertaining guests with their exploits. Their visit is chronicled in his book, The Silverado Squatters.
