Guess again...and talk with the locals in your home town.
Here are some links to Gary Dahl and his Los Gatos relationship. I can't find any that mention Carrie Nation's specifically, but I saw Gary on To Tell the Truth in the early 80's. When they asked him what he does now, he said "I own a bar in Los Gatos called Carrie Nations"

Regarding the invention of the Pet Rock at an old L.G. restaurant, the Grog and Sirloin (once at the corner of Saratoga and N Santa Cruz) Invention Story

A page mentioning famous Los Gatans (not including some obvious entries, such as former Houston Oilers coach Hugh Campbell, Oscar winning producer Dan Jinks, or the Saturday Morning Geek on Beat the Geeks.... Harumph! Famous People from Los Gatos. I'm kind of glad that they don't mention Thomas Kinkade, though.
