Institutional Records Digitization Project: Reminiscences of Early Pioneers: 1900-1904

Description:

Autobiographies and Reminiscences of California Pioneers, p.137-169, Vol. 1. This is a typed transcript, bound into a volume, of the member's autobiographical reminiscence created as an institutional record for the Society of California Pioneers. The original handwritten version exists in the member's Biographical File. This reminiscence includes a reference to a photograph of the member in a set of bound volumes, but there is no longer a photograph of this member in our collection. This reminiscence covers from 1840-1901 of Hall's life. He names the ships sailed on and details of voyages and ports. He briefly mentions the campaign and election of President Lincoln. Hall gives an honest account of early San Francisco, especially in his comparison of the S.F. of 1849 and 1873.
