GREEN ELECTRIC COMPANY
The electrical supply business in Stockton is well represented by the Green Electric Company, which was organized by Alfred H. Green in March, 1920, with headquarters at 438½ East Market Street, where a selected line of electrical products are carried, each article being consistently displayed to the best advantage. A native Californian, he was born in Stockton, April 8, 1900, where he grew up and received his education at St. Mary's College in Stockton, remaining in school until he was sixteen years old, when he began to learn the electrical business. He was first employed by the Engineering & Supply Company and later the Commercial Electric Company, both of Stockton; later, he was employed by the Pacific Portland Cement Company in Solano County, then went to Porterville, where he was employed by the Ulmer Machinery Company. Deciding to engage in business as an independent electrical contractor, he returned to Stockton, where two years ago he opened his own establishment, winning marked success from the start. Among the most outstanding electrical contracts that Mr. Green has handled are the Portuguese hall, the Barrett block, C.G. Gall building, and many fine cottages and bungalows in Stockton. His patronage extends to the towns and communities around Stockton in other directions. All contracts are carried to a satisfactory completion under the personal supervision of Mr. Green.
The marriage of Mr. Green occurred in Stockton and united him with Miss Evelyn Snow, born in Stockton and a descendant of the pioneer family of that name. Fraternally, Mr. Green is affiliated with the Stockton Parlor, N.S.G.W., No. 7; the Young Men's Institute, and the Modern Woodmen of the World.
