A group of San Francisco men bought the land around 1920 — the first parcel purchased from the original Spanish ranchero. They originally planned to use it as a hunting lodge, Price said, adding that the history of the building and how it eventually became the Montclair Women’s Club is a bit sketchy.The Oakland History Room, courtesy of head librarian Dorothy Lazard, did some research and reported that on Jan.
