    THE TWENTY SHERIFFS OF OLD TUOLUMNE
    By CARLO M. DE FERRARI
    . . .
    David F. Baxter, another old pioneer, brought the office back to the Democratic fold by defeating Trout at the election of 1873. He held the office for two terms, and in turn was defeated by Tryon M. "Pre" Yancey in the election of 1877.

    Yancey had commenced his career in Tuolumne County as a partner of John C. Duchow in the Columbia Gazette, and was by profession a printer. Later he was also associated for many years with the Union Democrat. He retired in favor of his son-in-law, George McQuade, after a stormy tenure in office in which he was bitterly opposed by his former newspaper partner, John C. Duchow, who was now the proprietor of the Tuolumne Independent. Following McQuade's death in 1889, Yancey again began to take an active interest in politics and succeeded once more in winning the office of sheriff at the election of 1892. He was re-elected for four years in 1894, but died in office on January 12, 1898 before the end of his term.

    Tryon married Rosa Bailey Crowell on 12 Sep 1860 in Chinese Camp, Tuolumne, California, USA. Rosa was born on 13 May 1845 in Gardner, Kennebec County, Maine, USA; died on 4 Mar 1909 in Sonora, Tuolumne, California, USA; was buried in Sonora, Tuolumne County, CA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
