On this date in 1941, Mr. & Mrs. Paul Kraus of 1309 Ocean Ave celebrated their golden wedding anniversary with a Sunday family dinner at noon and an open house for all their friends from 2 to 5 p.m.
The Krauses were married on September 13, 1891 in Orange, CA, and lived in Chino for forty-two years where Mr. Kraus worked for the American Beet Sugar Co. They raised five children and had six grandchildren on the date of their anniversary. Mr. Kraus, 87, and Mrs. Kraus, 75, were in good health and had retired to Seal Beach in 1933.
