Dr. William Knox, along with his brother-in-law, T. Ellard Beans, established the first bank of San Jose, California. In 1889, the Knox-Goodrich building was built by Sarah Knox, the wife of Dr. William Knox, after William Knox’s death. Sarah Knox remarried to Goodrich, who designed the Santa Clara Courthouse, and was renamed to Sarah Knox-Goodrich.
