Description
The collection is made up of very small acquisitions that tell the story of a particular period in the life of Sacramento
area individuals, families, groups, organizations, and businesses. It also includes short runs of periodicals, Sacramento
Gold Rush-era correspondence, and historic building and property surveys. Individually, the acquisitions make up less than
two cubic feet of material. The material from individuals and families tends to provide a look at what everyday life was like
in the Sacramento region, while the material from groups, organizations, and businesses provides a look at their activities,
practices, and membership. The collection is added to as new small acquisitions come in. Material is divided into four series:
individuals and families; businesses, groups, and organizations; periodicals; Gold Rush-era correspondence; and historic,
cultural, and environmental surveys. All are arranged alphabetically.
