Hecox Family: Scrapbooks
Description
An account of the resource
This collection contains 6 scrapbooks compiled at the turn of the 19th century by members of the Hecox family, the particular relatives of Adna and Margaret Hecox who first arrived in California in 1846. The scrapbooks vary in size, and consist of news articles, trade cards, images and other ephemera pasted into various books. The largest of these scrapbooks has received the greatest amount of research attention. According to local researcher Frank Perry, it was very likely assembled by naturalist and lighthouse keeper Laura J.F. Hecox., the ninth of Adna and Margaret’s ten children. It reflects her many interests including natural history, lighthouses, poetry, pioneers, coins, Christianity, and the lives of family and friends.

Laura J. F. Hecox
By Frank Perry
From 1869 to 1941 the federal government maintained a white, twostory lighthouse at Santa Cruz. Located near the site of the present
beacon, it was built to aid the many schooners and steamers that
came to Santa Cruz then to pick up lime, lumber, and hides. Through
the years three different people served there as keepers. The longest
to stay at the post was Laura Hecox. She faithfully tended the light
each night for 33 years.
Miss Hecox was born in Santa Cruz in 1854. She was the daughter of
Adna and Margaret Hecox, who had come to California by wagon
train in 1846. Adna Hecox was appointed first keeper of the Santa
Cruz light in December of 1869. Laura aided her father with his duties
until he died in 1883, after which she was appointed keeper.
The old-fashioned oil lamp and lens then used in the light- house
required several hours of maintenance daily. She had to regularly
polish the lens, which on clear nights directed the light 14 miles out to
sea. Miss Hecox was a particularly tidy lightkeeper, and was always
praised at the quarterly inspections for her spotless lighthouse.
When not cleaning, painting, or repairing the lighthouse, she devoted Photograph of Miss Hecox
time to her collection of marine life, minerals, Indian baskets, and
other curios. She turned one room of the lighthouse into a small museum for the enjoyment of visitors. In 1904 she
donated her collections to the City of Santa Cruz. From these collections grew the present Santa Cruz City Museum in
Seabright.
