The Placer Title Company Story
Placer Title Company was founded by Leo French in 1973. Leo’s vision
was to create a work environment that emphasized people. His dream:
“To bring together a group of people who really care about each other
and about their customers.” Leo believed that if this was accomplished,
success would follow. It did. Beginning with only two offices—one in
Roseville, California and the other in Auburn, California—Placer Title
Company has grown throughout Northern California and beyond.
At Placer Title Company, our people are dedicated to the industry
and are committed to giving exceptional service. Our staff’s longevity,
combined with the company’s commitment to retaining long-term client
relationships, has been the key to our success and is what makes us
who we are today. Backed by the strength of Mother Lode Holding
Company, we have been able to diversify our business by creating a
National Lender Service Division — PTC/National Closing Solutions, a
§1031 Exchange Company — NCS Exchange Professionals, and a Short
Sale Negotiation Service — Short Sale Advantage. Furthermore, we
have expanded our title and escrow services by adding North Idaho
Title, Montana Title and Escrow, Wyoming Title and Escrow, and Targhee
National Title to our family of companies. By expanding our services, we
can better serve our clients and offer solutions to all of their title and
escrow needs. At Placer Title Company, we care about each other and
our clients, and continually demonstrate why we are a proven leader in
the title and escrow industry.

San Ramon
Contra Costa County has been transformed from farms to freeways in the past fifty years,
and the county is still growing. Since World War II, the new homes, comfortable climate,
and pastoral beauty of Contra Costa have made it a popular place to raise a family. Today
the 733 square mile county boasts nineteen cities and twenty-three unincorporated
communities, each with its own character, charm and history.
The county now offers its residents the best of both city and country life. There are still
wide vistas, nature trails and open spaces, but business centers, excellent restaurants and
entertainment are widely available without leaving the county.
Mt. Diablo, standing 3,849 feet, dominates views from every corner of the county. On a
clear day, it is said, fifty-eight counties are visible from the summit. Much of Mt. Diablo has
been preserved for the public as state and regional parks.
The Caldecott Tunnels pierce the Coast Range, which tends to keep bay fog and big city
crime and bustle out of the Diablo and San Ramon Valleys. The gradually flattening
terrain of Contra Costa meets the delta of the Sacramento and San Joaquin River to the
northeast.
Once the home of the Ohlone, Karquin, Miwok, and other Native American Indian tribes,
the area was colonized by the Spanish in the early 1800’s. street names are a reminder of
California’s Spanish-Mexican past, and of founding farm families, such as Hartz, Ygnacio
and Pacheco.
Those streets and freeways now lead to regional recreation destinations such as Water
World USA, Six Flags Marine World, San Francisco, the Napa, Sonoma and Livermore Wine
Countries, the picturesque Pacific Coast, the Gold Country and the Monterey Bay.
Transportation and entertainment have mushroomed to meet the demands of Contra
Costa’s growing population. Demographers predict the county will have one-million
residents by 2010. The Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) train links Contra Costa communities
with San Francisco and points between. County Connection bus service covers the county,
and the network of pedestrian and bike trails is growing.

Walnut Creek’s Dean Lesher Center for the Arts, the Sleep Train Pavilion in Concord, and
a waterfront amphitheatre in Martinez are popular cultural venues. Community theatre
groups such as Diablo Light Opera, Onstage Theatre, Playhouse West, Contra Costa Musical
Theatre, Center Repertory Theater, the Town Hall Theatre Company, and the Willows
Theatre Company, and the Willows Theatre offer a continuing array of live theater Choices.
Recreational opportunities, in Contra Costa are abundant, hiking and horseback trails
wind throughout the area. Fishing, boating, hunting water skiing, swimming, as well as
basketball, baseball, bocce ball, tennis, racquetball and golf can be found within a short
drive.
A number of moderate to expensive housing developments have evolved in the
communities of Danville and neighboring San Ramon. Alamo and Diablo feature higher
priced homes in a more rural setting. Blackhawk is a development of custom homes in a
country club setting which features golf, tennis, swimming and shopping.

History of San Ramon
Written by Beverly Lane. Underwritten by the City of San Ramon: www.ci.san-ramon.ca.us.
A COMMUNITY BEGINS
Today San Ramon is a dynamic young city, one of California’s outstanding urban
villages. It has a variety of homes, parks and stores and a major employment center,
all in a setting of remarkable beauty.
It was once home to the Seunen Indians, Ohlone/Costanoans whol lived adjacent to the
valley creeks. After 1797 it was Mission San Jose grazing land; later it included Jose Maria
Amador’s 16,000 plus acres Rancho San Ramon.
San Ramon Creek was named after an Indian Vaquero, Ramon, who tended mission sheep
here. In an 1855 land title case, Don Amador explained that “San” was added to the
creek’s name to conform with Spanish custom.
American settlers first came to San Ramon in 1850 when Leo and Mary Jane Norris
purchased 4,450 acres of land from Amador. Other early landowners were William Lynch,
James Dougherty, and Major Samuel Russell. In 1852 Joel and Minerva Harlan bought land
from Norris and built a house on what became the Alameda-Contra Costa County line in
1853.
Many of San Ramon’s founding families are remembered today because their names grace
various canyons, hills and streets. Some of these pioneers were Norris, Lynch, Harlan,
McCamley, Crow, Bollinger, Meese, Glass and Wiedemann. Both the Harlan home (1858) at
19251 San Ramon Valley Blvd. and the Wiedemann home (1865) near Norris Canyon still
stand in their original locations. The Glass House (1877) has been moved to Forest Home
Farms.

A VILLAGE DEVELOPS
San Ramon had several names in the nineteenth century. It was called Brevensville (for
Blacksmith Eli Breven), Lynchville (for William Lunch) and Limerick (for the many Irish
Settlers). The first village developed at the intersection of today’s Deerfield Road and San
Ramon Valley Blvd. In 1873 when a permanent post office was finally established, it was
called San Ramon.
San Ramon Store and Post Office
During the 1860s the village became a hub of community activity. In 1864 a stage line
established by Brown & Co. ran from San Ramon through the valley to Oakland. A church
was dedicated in 1860, the general store was built in 1863 and students left their homebased classrooms to attend the San Ramon Grammar School beginning in 1867. Saloons, a
jail, Chinese wash houses and blacksmith shops lined County Road No. 2 (later San Ramon
Valley Blvd.).
With the arrival of the San Ramon Branch
Line of the Southern Pacific in 1891, other
changes took place. The name “ San Ramon”
permanently replaced references to ”Limerick.”
Crops and passengers could travel in and out
of the area, no matter what the weather. Until
1909 San Ramon was the terminus for the
line and boasted a two-story depot, the engine
house and a turnaround for the locomotive.

engine house, 1913

In 1895 attorney Thomas Bishop Acquired 3,000 acres of Norris land. The Bishop Ranch
raised cattle and sheep and was planted with hay, grain, diversified fruit crops and walnuts.
Bishop’s Shropshire purebred sheep earned numerous awards. The Ranch was partially
irrigated from an underground aquifer and at one point possessed the world’s
largest single orchard of Bartlett Pears.
The San Ramon Community Hall became the community’s center early in 1911,
drawing farm and ranch families to dances, school programs and plays.
MODERN SAN RAMON
As with the entire Tri-Valley, agriculture was the basis for San Ramon economy until
suburban development began. In 1966 the new Interstate 680 freeway was completed
through San Ramon to Dublin. For years a sign “San Ramon Population 100” accurately
reflected the number of people in the area, with the whole San Ramon Valley having
just over 2000 people for many decades.
The designation “San Ramon Village” first appeared in the 1970 census with a count
of 4,084 people, part of a San Ramon Valley population of 25,899. Developers Ken
Volk and Bob McClain built the first San Ramon suburban homes close to the county
line. A special district, the Valley Community Services District (VCSD) provided the
water, parks, sewer, fire protection and garbage collection for the new homes.
In 1970 Western Electric purchased 1,733 acres of the Bishop Ranch and proposed a “new
town” complete with a variety of housing, green belts, stores and light industry,
placed in the center of San Ramon. Eventually park of the land became new homes and, in
1978, 858 acres became today’s Bishop Ranch Business Park, a premier modern
office development.
Before San Ramon incorporated, homeowners groups such as the South San Ramon
Homeowners and the Homeowners Association of Twin Creeks represented residents’
interests before the county. They joined service clubs and others in providing a local
voice as developments replaced orchards.
In 1983 San Ramon voters decided overwhelmingly to incorporate as a separate city and
took control over development, police, parks and other services. A new library, community
center, parks and hospital testify to the energy which the new city displayed. No longer
a quiet outskirt of the Bay Area, San Ramon looks to the future and values its past.

Surrounding Communities
ALAMO
Alamo, which borders Danville’s north edge, is the second oldest
township in Contra Costa County. Martinez, the county seat, is the
oldest. Named for the many popular trees found in the community
by Spanish settlers, Alamo had the San Ramon Valley’s first post
office, in a private home in 1853. For many years it served as
the only post office between Martinez and Mission San Jose in
Fremont. Native Americans were the first inhabitants of the area.
During highway construction in the 1960s, artifacts from about
6,000 years ago were found near Stone Valley Road. Several
years later, a Native American burial ground that is believed
to date from 300 B.C., was discovered at the intersection of
Stone Valley Road and Danville Boulevard. Several efforts
to incorporate Alamo have failed over the years.
BLACKHAWK
The unincorporated community of Blackhawk,
noted for its elaborate houses and smattering of
celebrities, is sequestered behind walls that line
the rolling hills east of Danville. The first group of
Blackhawk homes was built in the early 1980s
on land that used to be known as the Blackhawk
Ranch. Established in 1917 by San Francisco
capitalist Ansel M. Easton, the ranch gained a
worldwide reputation for purebred shorthorn cattle
and prize Sire horses. Walnut trees also were
grown there, and for years the ranch was known as one of Contra Costa County’s most
productive. The original 1,250 acres ranch changed hands several times, growing to about
6,500 acres until it was sold in 1973 to the Blackhawk Corporation. During the next few
years the corporation sold lots to builders and individuals who today live in the 9 square
mile community. The posh Blackhawk Shopping Plaza contains Blackhawk Automotive
Museum and the University of California Berkeley, Museum of Art, Science and Culture.

DANVILLE
Danville residents like to call their town a special place. With
oak trees lining the main street, rolling hills in the background
and many businesses nestled in small wooden structures, the
downtown has a quaint feel that the town’s leaders work actively
to preserve. Danville was named after Daniel Inman, who, with
his brother Andrew, purchased 400 acres of farmland in 1858.
To establish a post office the area neede a name, so Danville it
became, says historian Virgie V. Jones. Today the town’s main
street is Hartz Avenue, named after on the area’s first subdividers, built around Inman’s time the central avenue was Front
Street, also known as Waterfront Street for its proximity to the
San Ramon Creek. Among the first businesses were a hotel,
blacksmith shop, barber shop and a veterinarian’s office. By
the early 1900s the town was growing rapidly with the addition
of several banks, a department store, a courtroom, telephone
office and a high school. The 18 square mile town incorporated
in 1982.
DIABLO
Nestled between Danville and Blackhawk,
Diablo Sits at the base of Mount Diablo, for
which it is named. Diablo was established in
the early 1900s as a summer vacation area for
San Francisco residents who wanted to escape
the fog. It eventually grew into a year-round
residential community with its own post office.
Diablo’s passé is reflected in area homes which
range from mansions to summer cottages.
Residents are adamant about maintaining the
eclectic feel and closely inspect any proposed
development.
