ELLMORE S. CLANCY
The horticultural interests of San Joaquin County are indebted to Ellmore S. Clancy for his active co-operation and progressive spirit in irrigation development and general advancement of the locality where he resides. He was born at Acampo, Cal., on December 31, 1891, and is one of the three Clancy brothers who have demonstrated what intelligence and hard work will accomplish along horticultural lines. He is a son of John H. and Fanny (Towne) Clancy. The father was a representative and active farmer for many years in San Joaquin County; and later he conducted a merchandise business in Acampo. Ellmore worked as a clerk for nine years in stores at Acampo and in its environs. His education was received in the grammar and high schools of Lodi, and his knowledge of horticulture began on his father's farm.
The marriage of Mr. Clancy occurred on February 3, 1914, in Lodi, Cal., and united him with Miss Elvena Sanguinetti, a daughter of Stefano and Mary Sanguinetti, both living on a ranch one mile northeast of Acampo. Mrs. Clancy attended the Elliott grammar school and is one of a family of seven children. The sketch of her brother James Sanguinetti appears in this work. Mr. Clancy owns a thirty-acre ranch, which is planted to almonds, and which he has brought to a high state of cultivation and productiveness. His equipment for irrigating this tract of land consists of a four-inch pump operated by a motor. Diligence and determination have characterized Mr. Clancy's operations, and have enabled him to advance steadily toward the goal of prosperity.
