An Agency of the Division of Museums & History Nevada Department of Tourism & Cultural Affairs Chaining Nevada: the Lasting Legacy of Ike James By Paul Pace, P.L.S. fllustrations: author's collection The Territory of Nevada emerged from the Territory of Utah in March 1861. Its northern boundary was the 42nd Parallel and its eastern boundary the 39th Meridian west of Washington, DC. Along the 35th Parallel it bounded the Territory of New Mexico (later Arizona). Its intended western boundary was the crest of the Sierra Nevada, to which California, admitted to the Union in 1850, didn't consent. In July 1862 Congress moved Nevada's east boundary to the 38th Meridian west of Washington, DC. The Greenwich Meridian hadn't come into universal use and longitude from Washington doesn't match that from Greenwich. Therefore Nevada's eastern line is not at an even degree of longitude. The Washington Meridian would remain in use for land surveys in the U.S. until 1912. Nevada entered the Union in 1864 with its 1862 boundaries. U.S. Senator William M. Stewart introduced legislation to make Nevada's southern boundary the Colorado River and its eastern boundary the 37th Meridian, carving another degree of longitude from Utah. Stewart's bill passed in May 1866 over the objections of the Delegate from Utah Territory. In July 1870 Congress appropriated $17,000 for a survey of Nevada's eastern boundary.

  • Before It Was a Park
    BEFORE IT WAS A PARK Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park and its Foundations in Comstock History Nevada Division of State Parks In honor of Nevada’s 150th anniversary 1864 to 2014 By Jay Howard, LTNSP 2014, revised 2017 A State Made by Mining Ron James wrote in his Comstock history novel The Roar and the Silence, “It was the longest telegraph ever sent, but Nevadan’s did not intend to do things in a small way. With the paperwork in order, Lincoln signed Nevada into statehood on October 31st 1864, just a few days before the November presidential election. Nevada sent back a thank-you in the form of three electoral votes for the president’s reelection.” Nevadan’s were proud of their pro-Union stance during the Civil War. Needed by the United States both politically and economically, the state of Nevada was said to have been ‘Battle Born’. Though we understand this to refer to the battles that had been raging in the east since 1861, Nevada was itself a relatively peaceful territory, other than the occasional skirmishes with Native Americans, and the more serious Pyramid Lake War of 1860. Nevadan’s never saw any fighting with Confederate forces, but certainly had their share of fistfights between Unionists and Copperheads. The latter usually losing the argument. During one incident, the Stars and Bars of the Confederacy was raised over a building in Virginia City, which led to a serious altercation between townspeople. Newspapers later reported that Unionists emerged bloody, but victorious. Early in the Civil War there was some concern that Nevada could be taken by the Confederacy, but these fears were never realized.
