35 CALIFORNIA CA was populated by 150,000 Native Americans and ,000 of Spanish or Mexican descent Several missions along the coast left over from Spanish settlements John Sutter, Swiss immigrant, had a dream to be the biggest farmer and cattle rancher. Granted from Mexico s government 50,000 acres in the Sacramento Valley set up his farm near a small no nothing town, San Francisco. Sent his men up to the mountains nearby to cut down trees, and set up a mill to help build his empire
36 SUTTER S MILL Manager, James Marshall finds gold San Francisco merchant, Sam Brannnan, runs through the streets announcing the finding of gold It ends up being acknowledged by the President too Sam Brannan begins to buy all the prospecting equipment he can find John Sutter in despair that his plans are ruined - he never truly looked for gold
