Howdy, Sorta off-beat and pre-seasonal, but let's join 49er Howard C. Gardiner for Christmas, 1851 at Secret Ravine: "From Christmas to New Year's Day it rained constantly. During the whole time I was alone in my cabin, and did not see a human face....The lack of society so depressed me at times that I was led to exclaim with Robinson Crusoe, 'Oh, solitude, solitude, where are the charms That Sages have seen in thy fall?' ".....At intervals, when it held up, I would bring in a supply of wood and keep the ruddy flame glowing in the fireplace. On Christmas Eve, mindful of the occasion, with thoughts busy with home and home associations, I resolved, though alone to enjoy the festival day. "'It is Christmastide, my boy! Let's you and myself enjoy it. Let us eat, drink, and be merry. Tomorrow Lucullus shall dine with Lucullus - Pile on more wood, the wind is chill But let it whistle as it will We'll keep our Christmas merry still, And hail with uncontrolled delight, And gladstone voice the happy night, That to the cabin, as the crown Brought tidings of salvation down.' "Though prepared by myself, it is perhaps a pardonable pride that impels me to extol that Christmas dinner. Taking the surroundings into consideration, it was indeed a grand spread-out. I had procured a tin of canned turkey and a couple of bottle of Bass's ale. The turkey, with boiled sweet potatoes, good light bread and butter, doughnuts of home manufacture, strong black coffee, and the ale, with a post-prandial[dinner] pipe at the finish, formed a dinner fit for the gods, at least I thought so, and enjoyed it accordingly." An early Merry:-)) Bob Norris in Dallas BNorris16aol.com>

Does anyone know of a list of the emmigrants on the first Noble Road party in 1852 referenced in Nancy's post? My GGG-GPs were probably in that group based on other information I have, but I don't have any documentation of their trip. My family didn't leave a written account, so my goal is to find a diary from one of the other members of that trip so I can read about it. It apparently was a small group of 23.

Hi Marilyn, I'm happy to do some research for you about the Nobles Trail. Others on the Lists most likely have more information to add. The first citations are from: "These Happy Grounds; A History of the Lassen Region" by Douglas Hillman Strong, Professor of History, California State University, San Diego; published by the Loomis Museum Association, 1977. "The Nobles Trail, prominent among the new routes to California, ran directly through the present Park. (Lassen Volcanic National Park) The idea for this trail originated with William H. Nobles, a skilled artisan from Minnesota who joined a party of some 80 men on a prospecting trip in the mountains of northern California in 1851. Nobles crossed into northwestern Nevada, and on his return trip, via the northern slope of Lassen Peak, he realized that he had discovered a far more direct route to California than any previously followed, and far superior to the ill-fated Lassen Trail. He proposed that this route be developed as a trail and stressed the commercial advantages it would have. In the town of Shasta he promoted the idea so persuasively that the local businessmen raised $2,000 by subscription and hired Nobles to divert traffic to the new route. The first party of emigrants to use the new trail left the Humboldt [River] in late summer, 1852, and followed the Applegate-Lassen Trail to Black Rock. They then headed west to Honey Lake Valley, went on past Cinder Cone, across Hat Creek, down Lost Creek, over Nobles Pass, near Manzanita Lake, and down Shingletown Ridge to Shasta City. At one point east of Lassen Peak, the trail followed the Lassen Trail in reverse: a man heading south to California on Lassen's Trail could meet a man heading north to California on Nobles Trail. Although understandably skeptical to begin with, the first party found the new trail both direct and easy, and many emigrants followed it thereafter. John Dreibelbis, who knew the trail well, praised its virtues. "We have crossed the Sierra Nevadas in seven different places, and unhesistantly affirm that this is the only good natural pass we have seen." And in December 1853 Dr. Oliver Wozencraft, believing Nobles Pass to be superior to any other route through the mountains of California, went with a small party from San Francisco to determine its suitability for a projected railroad. By the following year, 1854, the migration through Honey Lake Valley exceded 3,200 people and 33,000 head of livestock. In spite of all this patronage, however, the new trail never attracted the great bulk of travellers who still preferrd to follow the long established and better publicized routes farther south. Nobles himself went to Minnesota in 1853 to promote the use of his trail, but he failed to gain the fame and fortune he sought. If the Nobles Trail rather than the Lassen Trail had been opened up in 1848, both Nobles' fortune might have been greater and the growth of northern California might have been faster. As it was, after being used extensively in the 1850's and 1860's, the trail fell increasingly into disuse, particularily after the completion of the transcotinental railroad over Donner Pass. The portion of the trail through the soft cinders near Cinder Cone had already been abandoned by the late 1850's in favor of a route to the north via Old Station and Lost Camp. And the section from Hat Creek to Lost Creek disappeared forever under the great mud flow of 1915 when Lassen Peak erupted. Nevertheless, remnants still remain of the 18 miles of Nobles Trail that run through the area later incorporated into the Park. The present Lassen Park Road intersects Nobles' route two or three miles east of the Loomis Museum at Manzanita Lake, and the Badger Flat fire protection road, completed in the 1930's, follows Nobles' route for several miles. But with each passing year, trees and brush further obliterate the tracks left by those early emigrants to California who used the Nobles Trail." Nobles Trail is ranked by George Stewart in "The California Trail", University of Nebraska Press, 1962. He wrote: "No fewer than six competing roads were opened in'52--all of them passable and none of them good." They were the Placer County Emigrant Road, Johnson's Cutoff, the Sonora Road, Lassen's Trail and Nobles' Trail. [only five roads cited by author] "Nobles's Road, often recorded as Noble's Road, was developed for the benefit of Shasta City, after extensive and bold explorations by William H. Nobles in '51. He accomplished the task at which Wiggins, Lassen and McGee had failed---the establishment of a short cut from the big bend of the Humboldt into California." Comments: The Oregon Trails Association sponsored a trip along the Nobles Trail this summmer. Perhaps someone on the Lists was on the trip and has information about the current status of the trail. Lister Tim Purdy, recently returned from vacation, is an expert on the region---hopefully, he will add to our discussion of the Nobles Trail.

I'm going to leave the list for a while... I'm carrying six units and working full time (and I'm glad I dn't have a family right now or I'd be totally insane), but I have no time for active genealogical research until December. My dad (Hoppy) will lurk here and hopefully let me know when something interesting turns up. But before I go, I'll post some people I'm looking for in San Francisco... any info, email me or give a shout to Hoppy ([email protected]) 1.

Hi Chris, I checked around in my references and found Pino in good old reliable "Historic Spots in CAlifornia" by Hoover and Rensch. The authors state: "About two and a half miles south west of Penryn is LOOMIS, the successor of PINO. Pino had derived its name from the old mining camp of Pine Grove, which was establishd in Secret Ravine about a mile and a half from the site of Loomis, before the coming of the railroad. Mining began at Pine Grove (or Smithville) in 1850, and a store was set up by L.G. Smith. By 1860 the place had 1,500 people." According to my Thomas Bros. CA Atlas, Loomis is on Highway 80, south west of Auburn, Placer County. Hope this helps, Nancy Howard _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Please! If you must express appreciation for someone else's posting though the list, Please, don't quote the whole message while applauding. This is a horrible waste of bandwidth and also preserves the messages mutiple times in the archives. Dan

Hi Bob, I really enjoy the posts about life in the early mining camps. At the GOLD FEVER! exhibit (posted separately) several women are profiled who made successful businesses out of cooking food--breads, stews, soups, even cakes for the miners with only camp stoves, wood fuel and dutch ovens. No 'Jenn-Airs' for them! Nancy Howard _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

Hi Listers, I posted the body of this message several months ago. Last weekend I went to a Member's day for the GOLD FEVER! Exhibit. I am re-posting the message with additional updating comments to urge any of you in the general area to drive on over to the Autry and send a few hours surrounded by the best of California's history. It took me three hours to go through the exhibit because I like to read and listen to all the discriptions and comments for each exhibit. In this installation, a visitor may use a compact disc player to hear discriptions of all sorts of objects and time periods, complete with background music and accents when appropriate. By pressing three-digit code numbers on the CD player you carry along with you, a specific discussion is played for you to enjoy. Someone not listening to all the selections could walk through in one and a half hours...children will get tired. Visitors can go out for a snack or break and re-enter with a special pass from the guards. The artifacts in the exhibit parallel the history and personalities we have been discussing and researching. There was an early photograph of Jacob Leese and his wife Rosalia Vallejo, sister of Mariano Vallejo; I'd written a long review of hs life for the List. Even a simple miner's shack was interesting due to its presence and authnticity. I was very surprised by the down-river damage caused by the hydaulic mining methods. After seeing the exhibit, I find the following information to be very accurate; it is from the July-September edition of "The Spur", the magazine of the Autrey Museum of Western Heritage. (The museum is endowed by the Gene Autry Foundation.): GOLD FEVER! The Lure & Legacy of the California Gold Rush Marks 150th Annaversry of Discovery "One hundred and fifty years ago, the exclamation that gold had been found in California reverberated around the world. Soon people flooded into the region, changing it forever. Organized by the Oakland Museum of California, "Gold Fever! The Lure of the California Gold Rush" interprets the impact of the California Gold Rush from 1848 to the present. Since the exhibition opened in Oakland last January, record numbers of visitors have seen more then 1,000 artifacts and works of art, many of which have never been displayed publicly. Presented in Los Angeles by Wells Fargo, with additional support provided by ARCO, "Gold Fever!" opens at the Autry Museum on Saturday, September 19 and remains on view through January 24, 1999. Benefactors of the Museum are invited to preview the exhibition at a reception on Thursday, September 24, from 7 to 9p.m. Members may attend a preview reception on Friday, September 25, from 6:30 to 9p.m. "Gold Fever!" will fill not only the George Montgomery Gallery, but also the Spirit of Discovery and Showcase Galleries. The exhibit immerses visitors in the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of a remarkable era noted for its greed, its glory and the stampede of fortune seekers that poured into California. The exhibition depicts the explosive impact of the Gold Rush on California's economy, population, environment and cultural diversity. Many of the stories in 'Gold Fever!' will be new to those who learned about the Gold Rush only from textbooks or a casual tour of Sutter's Mill. The objects, documents and images in the exhibition express the simultaneous acqusition of extraordinary fortunes by some and utter catastrophes for many others, including California's Native Americans and Californios. It also explores the staggering effect of mining techniques on California's natural resources and the consequent birth of the conservation movement. Some of the facinating objects in the exhibition are an actual gold nugget found at Sutter's Mill; California gold specimens and magnificant decorative objects; including the one-pound gold and gold quartz ring made for president Franklin Pierce; the stern of the famous Gold Rush ship Niantic, sheathed in copper; a portion of a miner's hand-hewn log cabin with furnishings and accessories for life in the gold fields; and a powerful hydraulic monitor used to wash away soil and expose gold deposits. Visitors to "Gold Fever!" enter an archaeological 'dig' filled with 1850s goods, many excavted from partially burned ships, piers and buildings found under modern day San Francisco, including remarkably preserved jars of Gold Rush-era olives. A second area represents those who already lived in California on the eve of the Gold Rush---Native peoples, Californio vaqueros, Russian traders and others. Visitors then experience the moment of discovery of gold by Marshall in the mill race at Sutter's Mill and pick up contemporary newspaper accounts of the extraordinary riches found there. Tableaux of miners' lives and those who arrived to exploit other opportunities vividly depict the experiences of the Anglo Americans, Europeans, Mexicans, Chileans, Chinese, Hawiians, African Americans and others who made the difficult journey to California and took up residence in the gold fields and burgeoning citiies." The Autry Museum has a nifty web page at: <http://www.autry-museum.org > While there is no catalogue for just the exhibit, the Museum's Bookstore has an excellent selection of unusual books about many topics included in the early history of California. Many of the books Listers use as references are there for sale--such as Calhoon's "Coolies, Kanakas, and Cousin Jacks" and Levy's "They Saw The Elephant". The bookstore also has an extensive regular selection of materials about the early West, Western movies, Native Americans, Poetry, Western-themed gifts, Cooking and History. All the selections are NOT listed on the Museum's web page, however. The Museum is easily accessable by freeway and has great parking. This could be a great family outing--the Greater Los Angeles Zoo is just across the parking lot. I live in the area and will be glad to give tourists advice. If there is an easy way to coordinate dates, perhaps some of us who attend could meet for lunch or brunch in the Golden Spur Cafe at the Museum--it has a pleasant patio. The entire exhibit is STUNNING! so I urge you to do your best to get to see it. Nancy Howard _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
