Chicago: Lewis Publishing Co., pp. 360-361. ROBERT T. WREN, a respected and enterprising citizen of Stanislaus county, is a native Californian, born at San Francisco September 29, 1850, his parents being William and Ellen Ware (Lang) Wren. His father, a native of England, was reared and married there, and came to the United States in 1849, proceeding to California by the ocean route. He went to Tuolumne county and mined at Matlow Gulch, and behind Bald mountain, between Sonora and Columbia. He followed mining for years, and lost his life during the flood of 1861-'62, by drowning in the Stanislaus river, while engaged in repairing a boat. His widow survives him and is a resident of Columbia. Our subject, Robert T. Wren, was reared at Matlow Gulch, and was employed there working for others until 1871. He then came to Stanislaus county, where he was engaged mainly at farm work until 1883. He then located where he now lives and where he farms 320 acres. It is the Dan Longway place, afterward the property of the Booths, and later of George Greiersen. Mr. Wren was married in Tuolumne county, September 30, 1879, to Miss Nellie Filbert [Philbrick], a native of Maine. They have three bright, intelligent children, viz.: Henry E., Walter L. and William. Politically, Mr. Wren is a Republican. He is a progressive man and one who takes an active interest in public affairs. N.B. Robert's wife is actually Nellie Philbrick, daughter of Albina Philbrick (later Reynolds), as shown in 1880 census records in Stanislaus County. 1880 census records also show a daughter, Alice, born in August, 1879.
