Famous as it is among disasters, it takes on a whole new meaning when you actually had family involved.
The Winkler and Joos families lived in the Southern part of the City, where there was "less" fire damage. No records have been found yet as to how their homes and belongings were affected by the tremors.
The Ambrose families, however, living North on Greenwich, were forced to live in tents at the Presidio for a time before being herded like cattle on a boat and brought North to Marin County. The Northern part of the city and downtown are in most of the pictures you've seen over the years.
Actual facts and details of the Seismic Event are found on the map of the damages, and more.
Kites in the air...
