note on death date: the memorial plaque listing Gridleys indeed says his death date is 1880, but his will is dated May 1881 and the estate papers say he died 4 Mar 1882 (in Napa county). Also, though this plaque also gives 'Playcida' for the spelling of his wife's name, all of the other records, including the will, give 'Placida'.
Most census records would place his birth year as 1832 or 33, none as early as 1830. The index 'California Deaths and Burials, 1776-2000' shows 1833.
