The youngest descendent of the family who came to the picnic was Timothy Campbell, 1-month-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Campbell, 2467 Hinkley Ave., Richmond. All who attended are descendants of the late Andrew Peter Erickson, wno migrated from Sweden to Texas in the late 1800s. After he died, his widow, Mrs. Matilda Larson Erickson, moved with their nine sons and daughters to Stockton in 1901. Seven of them who survive, including Carl, 'were honored today.
