SALVADOR MAURO
Identified with the business interests of the town of Mossdale, San Joaquin County, Salvador Mauro, in partnership with Charles Abersold, owns and operates a garage and store on the Lincoln Highway, both young men being expert machinists and in consequence doing a successful business in their line. Salvador Mauro was born in the province of Cosenza, Italy, June 25, 1893, a son of Charles and Teresa Mauro, both natives of Italy. The father, Charles Mauro, was a shoemaker in his native country who came to Lathrop, San Joaquin County, in 1894, where he followed his trade successfully and also owned profitable vegetable gardens near Lathrop. In 1901 Salvador Mauro came to America with his mother and joined the husband and father at Lathrop. When the father passed away in 1908 the vegetable gardens were sold. The mother married again, and is now Mrs. Esposito, living at Lathrop.
Salvador Mauro received his education in the schools of Lathrop and Mossdale; then learned the machinist trade in the employ of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company at Tracy. In 1918 he became construction foreman on the Western Pacific Railroad, on the Stockton Division, and was occupied for eighteen months in this capacity; later Mr. Mauro was employed as an expert machinist on the Holt caterpillar tractors in the vicinity of Lathrop and Manteca. In 1918, in partnership with Charles Abersold, he opened a garage on the Lincoln Highway where they furnish gas and oils and do all kinds of automobile repairing in a most satisfactory manner and are meeting with well-deserved success.
