Photograph of four men assessing the Evertsen Adobe in San Gabriel before it was to be destroyed, shown from a distance, 1960. Four men are pictured in the foreground, standing on a leaf-strewn front yard. The lightly-colored adobe is pictured behind them, its center section jacketed in wood while the left side is made of brick. The men are identified from left as: Charles Fulkerson, Title Insurance and Trust; Thomas Workman Temple II, San Gabriel Mission Custodian; Norm Woest, Title Insurance and Trust; and Charles Elgert, President of the San Gabriel Historical Society and Postmaster. The two leftmost men look over what appear to be schematics or blueprints, while the right two look at what appears to be a ledger of some kind. A slab of unearthed foundation can be seen to the right.; The adobe was built in 1850 by John R. Evertsen, who was charged with taking the first U.S. Census of the City and County of Los Angeles.
