Sylvester A. Palmer (d.1919, Sacramento) was a "druggist and apothecary" with a store on Pacific Avenue.
- John L. Chase, The Sidewalk Companion to Santa Cruz Architecture (4th ed. 2023), Chapter Five, item (6), page 136
The "Palmer family" (presumably the family of S. A. Palmer) lived on Beach Hill in the 1880s, and on Walnut Avenue in the 1990s.
- John L. Chase, The Sidewalk Companion to Santa Cruz Architecture (4th ed. 2023); Chapter One, item (30), page 18; Chapter Three, item (32), page 70
Harrison (p.355) mentions Palmer's drugstore in a profile of Carl Caesar Kratzenstein, stating that he was born in San Francisco and came to Santa Cruz in 1887 to be a druggist when the store was still owned by Palmer's predecessor, J. J. Hug (Harrison spells it "Hugg"). The Sentinel ad at right says "Successor to J. G. Robinson". Robinson's identity has not yet been determined.
