MARCH 3, 1859.-Lo.id on the table, and ordered to be printed. WAR DEPARTMENT, March 3, 1859. SIR: I transmit herewith the report of Captain T. J. Cram, Topo­ graphical Engineers, on the military department of the Pacific, called for by a resolution of the House of Representatives. The topographical information contained in this report is, to a great extent, published in the reports and maps of the War Department, or is in course of preparation. A large portion of the report is devoted to subjects irrelevant tu its objects, as indicated by the title and the duties of Captain Cram, and contains animadversions upon public functionaries, which are out of place in a topographical communication, and which are, in no)sense, sanctioned or endorsed by this department. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, JOHN B. FLOYD; Secretary~ of War .. Hon. JAMES L.

Cram, Topographical Engineers, called for by a resolution of the House of Representatives of January 8. This is the report to which I called the special attention of the War Department in a report dated March 1, 1858. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, A. A. HUMPHREYS, Captain of Topographical Engineers, in cha1·ge . .lJ.frilitary topographical memoir and 1·eport, with maps, -r.- on the United States military department if the Pacific, by Thomas Jefferson Cram, captain Corps if Topograph·ical EngineeTs, chiif topographical engineer, ·department if the Pacific, 1855, '56, '57. PREFACE. This memoir has been drawn up by virtue of orders receiYed by me ·while serving in the department of the Pacific, under the command ,of Major General J. E. Wool, United States army, of which the fol- 1lowing is a copy: HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE PACIFIC, Benicia, California, J1me 20, 1855. 'SIR: The commanding general directs that you prepare a topo­ ~ graphical memoir, or view of the department of the Pacific, and that, . ·for this purpose, you consult such papers as may be on file at these 'headquarters. You will also call upon any officers serving within the department for such information as they may be able to give you iin the execution of these instructions. I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, E. D. TOWNSEND, Assistant AdJutant General. (Captain T. J. CRAM, Topographical Enginee?·s, Benicia, California. Accordingly, the information herein embodied has been derived- 1. From reports, sketches, journals of marches by officers of the 1ine, containing much that is valuable, and from reports of recon- 1naiseances and maps by topographical engineer officers, as I found them at headquarters, without, however, having been, as it seemed c The maps, not having been. ordered by the Committee on Engraving, have not been ;printed. DEPARTMENT OF TilE PACIFIC. 3 to me., previously digested, arranged, and embodied in a useful shape for pr::~ctical military purposes, before being forwarded to the War Department. 2. From conversations during personal interviews with many officers of the line and of the staff (too many to be here enumerated) who had been serving in various districts of the department, and who seemed to me to have intelligently calculated the resources of the country and various points of the different branches of the military service. 3. From my own personal observations upon the country, and upon the practical operations of the several branches of the service,· during a tour of duty (of from two to three years) in various directions and at various places, and in various surveys and reconnaissances in the department in the years 1855, '56, '57, while in the performance of duties as senior topographical engineer officer, attached to the general staff of the commanding general of the department of the Pacific. In drawing up the memoir and report I have not confined myself simply to the task of reporting topographical information, but have shaped aU in a manner, while rendering much of that kind of informa­ tion in the text and maps, so as also to meet the requisition contained in paragraph 481, Army Regulations; hence the double title of "Me­ moir and Report,'' seen on title page. Therefore: it will be observed that this will contain what may be regar~ed as a report of the military and other operations connected with, or having relation to, the military service, as they came under my own observation; and it will likewise embrace my own views, as well as the views of other officers when relevant, in regard to various points, upon which it will be seen by those having the patience to follow me that I have freely, but I trust respectfully, commented in the ensuing chapters. Not only shall I deem it within the scope of my province to report what I regard as existing evils in the working of the military opera­ tions of the regular army, and of the self-constituted volunteer armies that have been in the field in the department, and of the Indian ser­ vice in its relations with the army, but I shall feel at perfect liberty to report suggestions which, from a source however destitute of pre­ tension~ might, if carried into effect~ remove those evils, to the great benefit of the army service in the department of the Pacific. I.-General description if the military department of the Pacific. This department ineludes within its limits the State of California, the Territories of Oregon, Washington, and Utah, containing 718,361 square miles in surface; to use the language of one of its distinguished commanders~ ':altogether, in size, an empire of itself." Map No. 1 represents its general features, as far as necessary for general description. The military posts, as now located, are named in red letters, and are 21 in number, viz: nine in Califor.ni~, .fo.ur in 4 TOPOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR 0], THE Oregon, eight in Washington, and none in Utah; others may have to be established to meet exigencies. The physical features of this great area, while eminently favorable to secure the Indians and the depre· dating whites .from pursuit, are, in themselves, formidable obstacles to the transit of troops, with the necessary supplies for anything like an extended march into the interior of the country. These physical obstacles consist in numerous ranges of lofty mount· ains, of great extent, with which the whole department is checkered; a comparative deficiency in the number and extent of navigable rivers; the want of sui table natural roads, and the extreme difficulty of making roads, owing to the formidable obstacles presented by the mountains all over the department, and, besides, the denseness of the forests in Oregon and Washington. The only physical feature at all favorable to military movements is the great extent of seacoast navigation, from the post of San Diego to that at Bellingham Bay, an extent of about 1,400 miles, which may be regarded as the sea front of the depart· ment. Fortunately, this extensive front is furnished by nature with good harbors, viz: the Bay of San Diego at the south and the waters of Washington at the north; also one of the best in the world, at an in· termediate point, in the Bay of San Francisco.-(See maps Nos. 7, 16, 2.) This bay, and the other smaller tide-water bays with which it is con· nected by navigable straits and channels, are surrounded by a shore extent of 200 miles; and they are navigable by sail and steam vessels in any direction, and their waters communicate with the ocean by a deep navigable strait, the '' Golden Gate,'' inside of which stands the city of San Francisco.-(See map No. 2.) With these beautiful bays two navigable rivers (the Sacramento and San Joaquin) communicate: the former, from the north, affording steamboat navigation at all stages to Sacramento, 129 miles above San Francisco, and at high stages 150 miles further up; the latter river, coming from the southeast, affording similar navigation to Stockton, 115 miles above San Francisco. The Columbia is the only other river navigable for any extent piercing the ocean front of the department of the Pacific.-(See map 16.) But the circumstances of the bar at its mouth (see map No. 3) will forever preclude it from being a harbor.

  • 4.3 Cultural Resources
    4.3 CULTURAL RESOURCES INTRODUCTION W & S Consultants, (W&S) conducted an archaeological survey of the project site that included an archival record search conducted at the local California Historic Resource Information System (CHRIS) repository at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) located on the campus of California State University, Fullerton. In July 2010, a field survey of the 1.2-mile proposed project site was conducted. The archaeological survey report can be found in Appendix 4.3. Mitigation measures are recommended which would reduce potential impacts to unknown archeological resources within the project site, potential impacts to paleontological resources, and the discovery of human remains during construction to less than significant. PROJECT BACKGROUND Ethnographic Setting Tataviam The upper Santa Clara Valley region, including the study area, was inhabited during the ethnographic past by an ethnolinguistic group known as the Tataviam.1 Their language represents a member of the Takic branch of the Uto-Aztecan linguistic family.2 In this sense, it was related to other Takic languages in the Los Angeles County region, such as Gabrielino/Fernandeño (Tongva) of the Los Angeles Basin proper, and Kitanemuk of the Antelope Valley. The Tataviam are thought to have inhabited the upper Santa Clara River drainage from about Piru eastwards to just beyond the Vasquez Rocks/Agua Dulce area; southwards as far as Newhall and the crests of the San Gabriel and Santa Susana Mountains; and northwards to include the middle reaches of Piru Creek, the Liebre Mountains, and the southwesternmost fringe of Antelope Valley.3 Their northern boundary most likely ran along the northern foothills of the Liebre Mountains (i.e., the edge of Antelope Valley), and then crossed to the southern slopes of the Sawmill Mountains and Sierra Pelona, extending 1 NEA, and King, Chester.

  • Interest and the Panamint Shoshone (E.G., Voegelin 1938; Zigmond 1938; and Kelly 1934)
    109 VyI. NOTES ON BOUNDARIES AND CULTURE OF THE PANAMINT SHOSHONE AND OWENS VALLEY PAIUTE * Gordon L. Grosscup Boundary of the Panamint The Panamint Shoshone, also referred to as the Panamint, Koso (Coso) and Shoshone of eastern California, lived in that portion of the Basin and Range Province which extends from the Sierra Nevadas on the west to the Amargosa Desert of eastern Nevada on the east, and from Owens Valley and Fish Lake Valley in the north to an ill- defined boundary in the south shared with Southern Paiute groups. These boundaries will be discussed below. Previous attempts to define the Panamint Shoshone boundary have been made by Kroeber (1925), Steward (1933, 1937, 1938, 1939 and 1941) and Driver (1937). Others, who have worked with some of the groups which border the Panamint Shoshone, have something to say about the common boundary between the group of their special interest and the Panamint Shoshone (e.g., Voegelin 1938; Zigmond 1938; and Kelly 1934). Kroeber (1925: 589-560) wrote: "The territory of the westernmost member of this group [the Shoshone], our Koso, who form as it were the head of a serpent that curves across the map for 1, 500 miles, is one of the largest of any Californian people. It was also perhaps the most thinly populated, and one of the least defined. If there were boundaries, they are not known. To the west the crest of the Sierra has been assumed as the limit of the Koso toward the Tubatulabal. On the north were the eastern Mono of Owens River.

  • Chapter 8 Manzanar
    CHAPTER 8 MANZANAR Introduction The Manzanar Relocation Center, initially referred to as the “Owens Valley Reception Center”, was located at about 36oo44' N latitude and 118 09'W longitude, and at about 3,900 feet elevation in east-central California’s Inyo County (Figure 8.1). Independence lay about six miles north and Lone Pine approximately ten miles south along U.S. highway 395. Los Angeles is about 225 miles to the south and Las Vegas approximately 230 miles to the southeast. The relocation center was named after Manzanar, a turn-of-the-century fruit town at the site that disappeared after the City of Los Angeles purchased its land and water. The Los Angeles Aqueduct lies about a mile to the east. The Works Progress Administration (1939, p. 517-518), on the eve of World War II, described this area as: This section of US 395 penetrates a land of contrasts–cool crests and burning lowlands, fertile agricultural regions and untamed deserts. It is a land where Indians made a last stand against the invading white man, where bandits sought refuge from early vigilante retribution; a land of fortunes–past and present–in gold, silver, tungsten, marble, soda, and borax; and a land esteemed by sportsmen because of scores of lakes and streams abounding with trout and forests alive with game. The highway follows the irregular base of the towering Sierra Nevada, past the highest peak in any of the States–Mount Whitney–at the western approach to Death Valley, the Nation’s lowest, and hottest, area. The following pages address: 1) the physical and human setting in which Manzanar was located; 2) why east central California was selected for a relocation center; 3) the structural layout of Manzanar; 4) the origins of Manzanar’s evacuees; 5) how Manzanar’s evacuees interacted with the physical and human environments of east central California; 6) relocation patterns of Manzanar’s evacuees; 7) the fate of Manzanar after closing; and 8) the impact of Manzanar on east central California some 60 years after closing.

  • The Supernatural World of the Kawaiisu by Maurice Zigmond1
    The Supernatural World of the Kawaiisu by Maurice Zigmond1 The most obvious characteristic at the supernatural world of the Kawaiisu is its complexity, which stands in striking contrast to the “simplicity” of the mundane world. Situated on and around the southern end of the Sierra Nevada mountains in south - - central California, the tribe is marginal to both the Great Basin and California culture areas and would probably have been susceptible to the opprobrious nineteenth century term, ‘Diggers’ Yet, if its material culture could be described as “primitive,” ideas about the realm of the unseen were intricate and, in a sense, sophisticated. For the Kawaiisu the invisible domain is tilled with identifiable beings and anonymous non-beings, with people who are half spirits, with mythical giant creatures and great sky images, with “men” and “animals” who are localized in association with natural formations, with dreams, visions, omens, and signs. There is a land of the dead known to have been visited by a few living individuals, and a netherworld which is apparently the abode of the spirits of animals - - at least of some animals animals - - and visited by a man seeking a cure. Depending upon one’s definition, there are apparently four types of shamanism - - and a questionable fifth. In recording this maze of supernatural phenomena over a period of years, one ought not be surprised to find the data both inconsistent and contradictory. By their very nature happenings governed by extraterrestrial fortes cannot be portrayed in clear and precise terms. To those involved, however, the situation presents no problem. Since anything may occur in the unseen world which surrounds us, an attempt at logical explanation is irrelevant.
