Download or read book Pioneer Records of Trinity County, California written by Patricia Johnsen Hicks and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Northern California, this book is equal to the records of Massachusetts, 1620-1720. There are references to persons born in all of the continental United States, and from many other countries, who settled in California during and after the Gold Rush. This book is not only an exceptionally useful reference, but it is also interesting to read. Trinity County pioneers had many exciting adventures during the journey to California and afterwards, when they built new homes in the untamed West. The first part, Deaths 1850-1900, contains information about most of the Trinity County pioneers. Family information from obituaries and dates of arrival in California and Trinity County have been included when available. There are two indexes: Births and Marriages, 1850-1950; and Deaths, 1900-1950, with all reference sources given. Entire families can be located within this volume; sometimes as many as four generations. Entries in the Index to Deaths 1900-1950 list name, date of death, age at death and birthplace. Entries in the Indexes to Marriages 1850-1950 are first listed by husband, and then listed by wife, to facilitate finding names of interest. Marriage entries list names of husband and wife and date of marriage. Entries in the Indexes to Births 1850-1950 are listed alphabetically by father's name, and include father's name, sex of child and birthdate of child. There are 12,470 names in the deaths and marriages sections, and 3,940 in the births section. California historian Patricia Johnsen Hicks has authored several books on Trinity County, was a nominee for the Pulitzer Prize in journalism in 1993, and has been researching Trinity County records for over thirty years. This book, in particular, was in preparation for nearly twenty years.

Book excerpt: Breaking with the traditionally white-centric and politician-, military leader-, business magnate-dominated portrayal of American history, Still Casting Shadows: A Shared Mosaic of U.S. History presents a holistic overview of American history, giving equal weight and emphasis to the viewpoints and experiences of Native Americans, African Americans, and other marginalized groups. Rather than simply parading forth facts and figures of what "important" people accomplished or perpetrated, Still Casting Shadows delves into what life was like for "average" families in America-from 1620, when the Mayflower landed at Plymouth, Massachusetts, up to the present day. The lives of the individuals portrayed are cast in the context of hundreds of events of national import that occurred in the times and places in which they lived. Among those whose lives are thus illuminated in this broad outline of American history are John Howland and Elizabeth Tilley, passengers on the Mayflower who subsequently married; Capt. John Gorham, a notorious Indian fighter in Colonial New England; Susan Lucky, an Indian woman whose tribe was massacred in northern California; James Shannon, a Civil War sharpshooter who was at Gettysburg and Appomattox; and Theodore Shannon, a California Highway Patrol officer who was awarded that state's Medal of Valor in 1980.

Download or read book Thunder Up the Creek written by Herk Shriner and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Herk" Shriner was born in Eureka, Ca., and spent the first ten years of his life in Arcata. His parents moved to Burnt Ranch, Trinity County, in 1956, where he grew up to graduate from Trinity High School, in Weaverville. He is married to Lois, a girl he knew of in high school, but married two years after graduation. They have one son and three grandchildren. Herk worked 31 years for the local telephone company, retiring in 1997. He opened a construction company after retirement and has been operating a backhoe ever since. Herk is an accomplished historian of the Gold Rush, but never felt complete until he started researching "the first settlers" in Trinity County, and the Bridge Gulch Massacre. In this volume, Herk brings to life those who died at the hands of the posse on that fateful day, in a passionate way that can only be told by a storyteller of great empathy. The second volume is "in the works," as Herk takes a long look back into history and the genocide of the Native Americans in California during the years following the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill, an event heard around the world. The last book in the Ruin River Series will be the end of the long journey taken by White Wolf in search of revenge, but more importantly in search of his destiny. Look for volume two, Chil. Herk's second series of books is called the Marshal Series. The first volume is The Last Chance, the beginning of the story of U.S. Deputy Marshal Chance Bowie, a terminally ill man desperately in search of family to leave his Colorado ranch and estate. Bowie travels to Weaverville, CA. in 1894, the last known address of his father and brother and sister, and runs into a cousin, Sheriff James Bowie, Jr. of Trinity County.

Download or read book Outlaw Tales of the Old West: Fifty True Stories of Desperados, Crooks, Criminals, and Bandits written by Erin H. Turner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of fifty outlaw tales includes well-knowns such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Frank and Jesse James, Belle Starr (and her dad), and Pancho Villa, along with a fair smattering of women, organized crime bosses, smugglers, and of course the usual suspects: highwaymen, bank and train robbers, cattle rustlers, snake-oil salesmen, and horse thieves. Men like Henry Brown and Burt Alvord worked on both sides of the law either at different times of their lives or simultaneously. Clever shyster Soapy Smith and murderer Martin Couk survived by their wits, while the outlaw careers of the dimwitted DeAutremont brothers and bigmouthed Diamondfield Jack were severely limited by their intellect, or lack thereof. Nearly everyone in these pages was motivated by greed, revenge, or a lethal mixture of the two. The most bloodthirsty of the bunch, such as the heartless (and, some might argue, soulless) Annie Cook and trigger-happy Augustine Chacón, surely had evil written into their very DNA.
