Aerial Views of the University of the Pacific
University of the Pacific
The University of the Pacific's main campus in Stockton was established in 1924. The first campus was in Santa Clara (1852-1871), and later moved to San Jose (1871-1924). The original buildings on the Stockton campus were designed in the English Tudor Gothic style, and this architectural approach has been maintained in subsequent construction. These aerial photographs and maps document the growth of the University of the Pacific over time, as well as the surrounding area of Stockton. They are from the University Records located in Special Collections.

Birdle Mannon was born on April 15, 1909. At the age of seven, Birdle moved from North Platte, Nebraska, to the Ozark Mountains near Brownbranch, Taney County, Missouri, along with her mother, father, two brothers, and a sister. Miss Mannon resided at the family's cabin the rest of her life, passing away at the age of 90. The digitized artwork and writings in this collection are predominantly the work of her father, Samuel W. (S. W.) Mannon, an self-trained artist.
