Charles Main Grave Site
Charles Main (1817-1906) made his fortune boating supplies on the Sacramento River. In fact, Main owned that river’s first side-wheeler, the New England. He was later a partner in what was said to be San Francisco’s largest saddle and harness business. He also held an interest in San Francisco’s "street railroad" business. He had a hand in widening Kearney Street from Market Street to Broadway to accomodate the "railroad." Frederick William Delger has a similar Gothic Revival monument on Millionaire’s Row. The Italian sculptor Fulgenzio Seregni designed them both.
