Also address integrity) <br />The H.C. Head House was built and owned by Horace Caldwell Head, son of Dr. and Captain William Head who was a member of <br />the California Assembly and surgeon. Dr. Head was said to have personally delivered the bill to Sacramento to allow Orange <br />County to succeed from Los Angeles County. He fought in the American Civil War on the Confederate side and was Grand <br />Cyclops to the Ku Klux Klan in Tennessee. Horace Head was married to wife Anna in 1870 and traveled to California with his <br />parents. He was a graduate of University of California, Berkeley and was the attorney of the Orange County Flood Control District, <br />and later, was District Attorney for the County of Orange from 1904 to 1908. He served as President of the Orange County Bar <br />Association from 1915 to 1920. Although we do not know his political leanings, it is known that he attended the Confederate <br />Luncheon in Los Angeles. Horace died in November of 1955 at his then home: 214 N. Birch. The Horace C. Head home was sold <br />many times after this. <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 4.) <br />B11. Additional Resource Attributes: (List attributes and codes) <br />*612.
