About this landmark
Plaque text:
The Old Homestead
This was the first American home in Crockett, constructed in 1867 by Thomas Edwards, Sr., on land purchased in 1866 from Judge J.B. Crockett. Located on an earlier indian village near the Carquinez Straits, its timbers, some of which were brought around the horn, have been well preserved.
