WILLIAM H. SINGINGER
WILLIAM H. SININGER A successful rancher is William H. Sininger, the experienced viticulturist who is in charge of the old N. N. Norton vineyard on 'White's Bridge Road, where he has been since December, 1907.
He was born at Bentonville, Adams County, Ohio, on January 26, 1886, the son of John Allen Sininger, of Ohio, who was a farmer there. He married Mamie L. Miller, also an Ohioan. Eleven children once made up the family; and ten are still living. William was the oldest and was reared on a farm, while he attended the usual lower country schools and completed the course of the high school after which he continued with his father until 1906, when he came west to
California.
He arrived in Fresno on April 15, and entered the employ of H. E. Norton, for whom he ranched in the Madison district. Later he worked in Pierce & Norton's sawmills. In 1907, however, and the month of December. Mr. Sininger came onto his present place. It is the old N. N. Norton estate, at White's Bridge and Johnson Avenue, and has, besides a fine orchard and fields of alfalfa, a vineyard of fifty acres, set out to sultana, empires and malagas.
At Fresno, July, 1918. Mr. Sininger was married to Mrs. Elo (Whitlock) Thompson, a native of Tehama County, Cal., who by her first union had two children Howard and Morris Thompson. Mrs. Sininger shares with her husband a large circle of devoted friends. Mr. Sininger has always favored cooperation, and so has always supported every association movement. He is a Democrat, but he never allows his democracy to interfere when it comes to supporting what he really believes to be the best man and the best measure. Had Fresno County not been blessed with many such sterling citizens as Mr. Sininger, it could never have forged to the fore as the foremost of all counties in the Golden State.
