Biographical Information

Edward McLean (1818-1886) was the eldest child of Francis McLean and Sarah Childs Berry of Connecticut. In 1843, Edward graduated from Yale University. He moved to San Francisco in 1849 or 1854, partly in search of relief from his chronic asthma, and found work in the insurance business. In 1856, Edward relocated across the bay to Oakland, where he served as one of the original trustees and site selectors of the College of California. He returned to Connecticut briefly in late 1857 to wed Sarah E. Chester. Until 1869, Edward and Sarah resided in Oakland and had five children: Agnes, Edward Jr., Fanny, Francis, and William. Edward continued to work in insurance and also became a real estate broker in the firm McLean and Hardy. He played an active role in organizing and managing a range of East Bay properties, including the Bay View Homestead and the Academy Homestead. Edward was also an original member of the Oakland Board of Education, which was founded in 1868. In 1869, Edward and Sarah McLean moved to Los Angeles, again seeking a more hospitable climate for his chronic illness. He became a senior member of the real estate firm of McLean, Rust and Wilson and later of the firm McLean and Wilson, a prominent real estate agency in nineteenth-century Los Angeles. In Southern California, Edward McLean organized the Santa Gertrudes Company, which had lands in Downey, Fulton, and Norwalk as well as the Mutual Orchard Association, which had lands in Pasadena. Youngest daughter Fannie W. McLean graduated from UC Berkeley in 1885 and was an English teacher and vice-principal at Berkeley High School for over 50 years starting in 1886. She was also director of the San Francisco Settlement Association, vice-president of the National College Equal Suffrage League, and vice-president of the California Civic League. Fannie McLean wrote articles and was an active speaker on a range of progressive issues, including education reform and women's suffrage. Fannie also became one of the directors of the McAlpine Mining and Milling Company in 1902. Eldest daughter Agnes McLean (1861-1944) was a graduate of Samuel Silas Curry's School of Expression in Boston and taught physical education and public speaking at public schools in Berkeley and Los Angeles.

Scope and Content of Collection

Family correspondence; diaries; subject files; writings and speeches; scrapbooks; family financial records; real estate ledgers; and materials relating to the McAlpine Mining and Milling Company. The correspondence consists of letters exchanged between members of the McLean family as well as general correspondence. Among the family correspondence are letters from the 1850s and early 1860s between Edward and Sarah McLean and family in Connecticut (some of which document the couple's voyage to California in January of 1858). The bulk of the correspondence is that of Sarah, Agnes, and particularly Fannie McLean. Edward McLean's real estate ledgers document his real estate interests in Oakland, Berkeley, and the Los Angeles Area. Subject files, writings and speeches, and scrapbooks in the collection were created by Fannie McLean and document her work at Berkeley High School as well as her activities in the settlement movement, women's suffrage, and other progressive causes. The collection also includes a substantial number of files on the McAlpine Mining and Milling Company, including correspondence, bylaws, property records, legal records, stock certificates and ledgers, and bills and receipts.
