Sierra [Kyriè Sierra Davenport], her Dad [Gary Udell], and her little sister Brooke [Karly Avva] discover their ancestors were influential during the Gold Rush in Sacramento through a journal written by William Riley Wimmer [Aria Leven Davenport].
Based off of real people in 1855, we travel back with outlaws Rattlesnake Dick [Jason Michael Shannon], George Skinner [Joseph Baldrige], Cyrus Skinner [Alex Harris], Rafael Escobar [Carey White Jr.], and Romero who rob two prospectors - Arlen [Bill Bettencourt] and Henry [Rob Tillitz] - panning for gold along a river bank.
The journal - that Sierra finds in her Great Great Grandma Cecilia Wimmer's [Toni Corbett] house - takes us back to 1848, the day John Sutter [Mark Hoffman] takes his wife Anna DuBelt [Meghan Bird] to his mill in Coloma, California where they meet up with James Marshall [Dan L. Walters] and the Wimmer's: Peter [Steven Sommer], Jennie [Amber DeAnn], George [Nolan Bourassa], young Sarah [Grace Rose], and young William [Adrien Bourassa], along with their housemaid, Beatrice [Courtney Leonard-Maye] to confirm the discovery of gold.
The journal also tells of a possible treasure that William may have buried near Sutter's Fort. One day, his quiet walk, to his buried gold, was not quiet at all. William sees Samuel Brannan [Steve Dakota] and Mee Lien [Yinique Myo-Flores] who happened to be on a morning stroll. William writes of his encounters with Victoria Marie [Haley Hicks] - a girl who is infatuated with him - and her big brother Zeke [Rob Hayes]. William also sees his older sister Sarah [Susan Slaven] who happened to be looking for Benjamin [Aramis Liam], William's younger half-brother who was following him, and Martha Jane [Claire Elizabeth], William's younger half-sister, who was following Benjamin.
Sierra, her Dad, and Brooke, intrigued by the historic family information from the journal and their Genealogy, search for The Golden Tree.
