| From the Guidebook: |
Built in 1854 among sawmills
and redwood groves by Dr. R. O. Tripp and M. A. Parkhurst,
the store was operated by Dr. Tripp (who also served as
dentist, librarian, postmaster, and community leader)
until his death in 1909. It was purchased by the County
of San Mateo in 1940 and opened as a public museum on
September 7, 1947.
