As far as I know, these Clines are not related to me. There is, however, a Cline family in CA that owns a vinyard. I have no idea if they might be related. They own Cline Cellars in Sonoma County, CA. of course, I had to have a bottle of Cline Wine when I saw it years ago and still have it sitting in my office (empty).

I've "rescued" two copies of the same photograph of John C. CLINE who was
the 20th and 25th Sheriff of Los Angeles County CA between 1892-1894 and
again from 1914-1921. The photograph appears to be a copy made from earlier
photographs likely taken in the 1890's with John likely in his 40's at the
time. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following
information regarding John and his family:
John Casper CLINE was b. 2 May 1860 in Baleratt Melbourne, Australia to
parents John Alexander CLINE (1824-1896) and Agnes NIVEN (1834-1915). John
was one of 4 children born to this couple including, John Casper; William
Henry; George T.; and Casper CLINE, all born between 1860 and 1866. The
family immigrated to the USA in 1862 when John was just a young child. John
married Margaret Lee TERRY (b. 12 Oct 1870 in Indiana) in about 1885 and
together they had two children, Joseph B. CLINE b. Jan 1887 in California
and Harry Winfield CLINE b. 25 Dec 1887 in Los Angeles, CA.
John died 12 Dec 1954 in Los Angeles Co., CA and is buried in the Inglewood
Park Cemetery in Inglewood, CA.

I am hoping to find someone from John's family so that the photographs can
be returned to their care. If you are a member of this CLINE Family, or you
know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
