AUGUSTINO MARINGO

 

 

      A. MARINGO, a farmer of Dry Creek Township, was born in Italy in 1828, a son of Peter and Mary Maringo, both of whom died in that classic land. His father was a farmer. Mr. Maringo, our subject, emigrated to California in 1869, first settling in Stockton. In 1879 he purchased from the railroad company the present property of 624 acres, two and a half miles from Galt and twenty-five miles from Stockton; and on this place he has made all the improvements now witnessed there. His barn and other outbuildings are very good structures. On this ranch he carries on general farming, and has a small vineyard and garden, in fine trim. In 1857 he married Teresa Maringo, a native of Italy, and they have four children, namely: Melita, Mary, Virginia and Alessandria.
