Oakhurst House - Location uncertain, but we can guess where it was.
Jack & Sidney Bunce lived here from c.1936 to c.1939,
  but much of the time Mom was here w/ just her Dad Jack.
Her parents almost certainly rented the place.

Lincoln Grammar School (1920s), one of three elementary schools in 1941 in Madera.

Madera Houses & Schools
Jack & Sidney from c.1940 to c.1946 rented in Madera,
  where Mom graduated from Lincoln Grammar School
  (Madera Elementary), and Madera High School.
 
They lived first at Rural Route 2, Box 199, on County Road 13 ½ (Ave 13 ½), about ⅓ mi east of where that road intersects Road 28.
Later they were at 200 South Park St, closer to the High School.

Madera High School, probably in the 1960s
Possibly an old photo of the motel, but we don't know for sure.

Escalona Motel - 1697 or 3530 Old Highway 1 in Santa Cruz, CA
Jack and Sidney from c.1946 to c.1951 ran a motel here.
 
Their motel is long gone now, but we think it was on, or just north
  of Old Highway 1 (Mission St), perhaps south of where Escalona
  now makes a T-intersection w/ Grandview St. (see map at right)
 
Perhaps 3530 was a home address for Jack & Sidney,
  and 1697 was where the motel was actually located???

Picture taken in August 2014, but the house looks the same as it did in the 1950s.

Santa Cruz House - 116 Holway Drive, Santa Cruz, California
This house was built in 1915, and
