Santiago Jacob Duckworth (June 13, 1865 – June 28, 1930), known locally as S. J. Duckworth, served in the California State Assembly for the 61st district from 1893 to 1895.[1] He was as an early Monterey pioneer businessman, real estate developer, and visionary of the short-lived Carmel City. In 1889, he wanted to build a Catholic summer resort, bought the rights to develop the area, filed a subdivision map, and started selling lots.[2]
