William Davis Merry Howard (1818–1856) was a native of Boston, Massachusetts who came to California in 1839 as a cabin boy on a sailing ship. For several years he worked on ships trading hides and tallow along the Pacific coast. In 1845 he formed the San Francisco merchant business of Mellus & Howard. Howard was one of San Francisco's most public spirited and prosperous men at the time of the California Gold Rush.〔Gertrude Howard Whitwell, 1948, ''William Davis Merry Howard",California Historical Society Quarterly, Vol. 27, No. 2 (Jun., 1948), pp. 105-112 〕 ==Early life== William Davis Merry Howard was a native of Boston and came to California in 1839 as cabin-boy on the ship California.
