History of the Cornish Family
H.J. Cornish
Jim CornishHugh is proud to represent the third generation of his family as a residential real estate professional in the Menlo Park, Atherton, Portola Valley, Woodside and Palo Alto areas. Hugh's grandfather H.J. Cornish, along with G.E. Carey, opened Cornish and Carey Realtors for business in 1935. In the early years, the firm focused on selling homes and developing small subdivisions in the greater Palo Alto area. H.J. Cornish died unexpectedly in 1955 at the age of 56, just as the company began to grow. Hugh's father, Jim Cornish, joined the company a few years later. Over the next forty years, the company grew into the largest independently owned residential real estate company in Northern California. The company's owners all lived locally and were actively involved in the affairs of the community. Following family tradition, Hugh looks forward to serving the Atherton, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Portola Valley, and Woodside communities for many years to come. |
