Francis Kittredge Shattuck (March 6, 1824 – September 9, 1898) was the most prominent civic leader in the early history of Berkeley, California, and played an important role in the creation and government of Alameda County as well.
He also represented Oakland Township for many years on the Board of Supervisors of Alameda County, starting in 1857.
He then moved to a small town in Vermont and worked as a store clerk, until he heard of the discovery of gold in California.
In 1852, Shattuck and Blake, and two partners they met in the gold fields, William Hillegass and James Leonard, claimed four adjoining 160-acre (0.65 km2) strips of land in the area that became the central part of Berkeley.
He was buried with his wife Rosa M. Shattuck, his sisters, and their husbands George Blake, Henry H. Havens and Benjamin F. Lee at the Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland.
