Shasta County is chocked full of history!

I'm so thankful (and still quite amazed) that I was able to find that map. I know when we spoke the first time, I had suggested that you reach out to the Shasta Historical Society, and then you said "well I work for them" and I said "oh"....the understanding dawning on me, that sometimes even our treasured Historical Society needs a little help. We so often send people to you as a department because sometimes those pieces of history are well out of our reach. Thank you for the kind kudos, I didn't do much other than look where I thought it might be only to discover it where I never thought it would be. That, and I learned a few things about who has the most historical knowledge of that kind of history at a county level. I was happy to have helped and to be honest, it was fun!!!! A break from the norm and a chance to dive into something that I love (history AND cemeteries). I did have a question, after watching the video I was wondering if relocating those women to their native lands had been considered? Not that they should be moved but it made me so sad to see where they got left and it almost felt so isolating to me.

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

Thank you so much for the kind words and all the hard wotk. The historical society is usually the best place to go for answers but that plat map was pretty much unknown. I found it mentioned in a 1949 newspaper article. I also wondered the same thing about why these women were not moved to a native cemetery or why they were not originally placed at a Native cemetery. They had family. Like I said in the video, I have more questions then answers about their burials. We may never know. I am hoping that this video finds someone who may know.

Well done, Jeremy Tuggle! Nicely made update Robert! I’m a new subscriber to both channels. Long time watcher!

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

Thank you and welcome in

Sent over from Jeremy Tuggle’s channel, Exploring Shasta County History, I wanted to see what he found and this was truly amazing to see. Even with the error on the wooden marker of the misspelled surname. Funny how he found it while doing Find A Grave stuff.

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

Ya, for sure. The hospital cemeteries have been my pet projects for a while but I have not focused on Coear Creek as much as the other. Jeremy fast forwarded my research on Clear Creek lol lol.

[@CalvinHarrison-x3l]

New to the channel. I appreciate your hard work preserving California’s history and heritage.

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

Thank you!😁

[@gandyapril2591]

Man, you’re lucky to have found those cemetery plot maps! Good job, Jeremy! Nice update.

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

I agree, thanks to Tracie at the county for finding them for me.

[@gandyapril2591]

@ yes!

[@FrderickGrindstead]

The whole story made me want to subscribe to this channel so I did. It’s remarkable that you found these. The original Ambush video was suggested to me by KZbin, and I found this after viewing your channel. Great job, great update.

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

Thank you and welcome😁

[@jeremytuggle6424]

I remember contacting you about them asking you if they were related to those in the ambush video and you said no that there surname is spelled wrong, well a couple of days later I did the genealogy and turns out its the one and the same. Robert, couldn't believe it. I stumped him with this discovery. Sure enough I had to delete my records off Find A Grave and Robert merged his to this cemetery. They are the one and the same. What a remarkable find to be apart of. I was truly excited! Great video my friend!

[@CaliforniaUnearthed]

You sent me the second photo of the other cross a couple of days later, showing the McKay name. I then knew for sure it was the two I was looking for. Misspelling and all. LOL thank you again for the find, you helped solve a huge mystery.

[@BrandonChazelle]
