ALVINZA OSCAR HASLEHURST

 

Alvinza Oscar Haslehurst, dentist, whose office is at No. 337 Geary street, San Francisco, has been engaged in the practice of his profession since 1883.  He was born in Sutter Creek, Amador county, California, December 1, 1860, the son of William Haslehurst, who was one of the pioneer settlers of this State, having arrived in 1850.  He was engaged in mining operations from the time of his arrival until his death in 1883, being associated much of the time with Alvinza Haywards.  He was a native of Manchester, England, and came to the United States in his boyhood.

 

Alvinza received his literary education at Washington College, Alameda county, where he graduated after a course of three years, having previously attended the public schools of Amador and Alameda counties up to the age of fourteen years.  He commenced the study of medicine and dentistry in the office of Dr. William J. Younger, of San Francisco, in 1880, remaining in his office three years.  At the end of that time Dr. Haslehurst commenced the practice of his profession, which he has since continuously followed in San Francisco.  He has for some years taken an active interest in military affairs, having been a member for three years of the National Guard of the State of California, and is now a member of the military staff of the Second Brigade, N. G. C.
