ERNEST J BARCELOUX - Ernest J. Barceloux was a most practical farmer, having been reared to a thorough understanding and appreciation of this important industry. He was born in lo County, October 29, 1869, the son of Peter Barceloux, of whom extended mention is made elsewhere in this volume. The oldest child in his parents’ family, Ernest Barceloux was reared on the Barcelona ranch, five miles southwest of Willows, in what is now Glenn County. He attended the local schools until be was eleven years of age, when he entered St. Mary’s College in San Francisco. After completing his studies there, at the age of seventeen, he entered a college in Canada. Here he became interested in athletics and won distinction for his proficiency as a catcher on the college baseball team. At the end of one year he returned to his home, where he began farming with his father and gained a wide and valuable experience in general farming, handling the big teams in the grain fields, running a combined harvester, and doing blacksmithing and repair work on the farm machinery, so that when he decided to engage in ranching on his own account, he was well qualified for the undertaking.

On May 25, 1892, at Willows, Ernest J. Barceloux was married to Miss Belle Quint, who was born near Booneville, Cooper County, Mo. She was the daughter of Herman and Catherine (Cash) Quint, natives of Missouri and farmers in Cooper County. In 1880, Mr. Quint brought his wife and children to what is now Glenn County, where his brother, Fred Quint, was a large land owner. Fred Quint was one of the early settlers in the county, having crossed the plains in 1849. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Quint are now residing ou their ranch, eight miles northeast of Willows, where they located in 1885. Of their four children, Belle Quint was the second in order of birth.

In 1892, the year of his marriage, Mr. Barceloux rented the Peter Seiple place. After farming this place successfully for seven years, in the fall of 1899 he leased a large ranch ten miles northeast of Butte City, on the Chico road, where he enlarged his operations, making use of a large farming outfit for the operation of the ranch. He had put in his crops and already had a most promising outlook, when he was stricken with pneumonia and died five days later, on May 20, 1900. After her husband’s death, Mrs. Barceloux operated the ranch until fall, when she sold the ranch outfit. For a year thereafter she lived with her parents, and then moved to Willows, where she raised her children. Five children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Barcelona, two of whom died in infancy. The three who are living are: Pierre Elmer, who completed his education at the Stockton Commercial College and is now assisting his mother; Leo Vernon, a student at Mt. Angel College, at St. Benedict, Ore.; and Ernest J., who is attending the Glenn County High School, at Willows. On November 5, 1905, Mrs. Barceloux was again married, to Pacific Ord Eibe, a prominent business man of Glenn County, a sketch of whose life appears on another page of this work.
