Abstract:
Autobiographies and Reminiscences of California Pioneers, p.71-72, 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. It appears that the photographs in this set were dispersed throughout the regular
photography collection, but the photographs referenced in the related materials may or may not be these same photographs.
This very brief reminiscence offers some family history as well as limited information regarding Carr's journey to California.
