Property of Sarah Jane Fullerton Cecconi (1936 -2017), daughter of the George Lewis Coleman and Elizabeth Ann Fullerton Coleman, later Elizabeth Ann Fullerton Coleman Crocker Montagu, the Tenth Duchess of Manchester. Sarah married Giuseppi Cecconi, called Enzo. The Cecconi's, albeit married for 43 years, lived in Pebble Beach California for a few months each year, and lived for a few months in Europe each year, and in between, they lived separate lives. Cecconi owned eponymous restaurants, mostly financed by his wife. Cecconi's eventual bankruptcy caused them to close operations in Europe, and turn their home in California into a restaurant club.
