Thrilled to find this. My grandfather, Julian H. Alco, was a Director of the California State Board of Prisons at the time of the 1935 San Quentin Prison break, however was not present at the time of the kidnapping and break. He assisted in the capture of the escapees and return of his fellow directors, and became temporary Warden of San Quentin.
