- James Miller Guinn, History of the state of California and biographical record of Santa Cruz...(Guinn, 1903)
- Edward Martin, History of Santa Cruz, California (Martin, 1911).
Another source of early biography is A memorial and biographical history of the coast counties of Central California, but while it includes historical sketches and short biographies of four counties (Monterey, San Benito, Santa Cruz, and San Mateo), few Santa Cruz County persons are included.
Later sources (e.g. Riptide Centennial) tend to mainly refer back to one or more of these five. The number of such biographies provides a rough idea of a person's prominence during their lifetime.
