Manteca Historical Society’s 26th Annual Gourmet Sampler was a resounding success Sunday afternoon with purveyors of drink and food serving samples to benefit the museum. Dressed in period costumes of the early 1900s, Alan and Jeanie Marsden were sitting just inside the lobby door offering raffle tickets to those attending. They have lived in Manteca for some 18 years after their retirement from Sunnyvale.
