    STOCKHOLMIA 2019 PRESENTATION The Transcontinental Pony Express 1860-1861 WEDNESDAY 29 MAY 2019 AT 15:00 WATERFRONT CONGRESS CENTRE LEVEL 5 AUDITORIUM PRESENTED BY Scott R. Tr epel © 2019. All rights reserved by Scott R. Trepel (author) and Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries, Inc. (publisher). May not be reproduced in any form without the express written consent of the publisher. INTRODUCTION The Transcontinental Pony Express 1860-1861 “News was received every ten days by pony. That coming by the Butterfield route was double the time; what came by steamship was from three to four weeks old when it arrived... It was the pony to which every one looked for intelligence; men prayed for the safety of the little beast, and trembled lest the service should be discontinued.” —Hubert Howe Bancroft, History of California ROM THE VANTAGE POINT OF THE MODERN WORLD, the concept of using horseflesh to provide the Ffastest means of communication is almost too remote to comprehend. And yet so many of us are familiar with the image evoked by the Pony Express—a lone rider galloping across long stretches of grassy plains and desert, climbing the winding trails of the Rocky Mountains, and fighting off the perils of the western frontier to deliver precious letters and news from one coast to the other. When the transcontinental Pony Express started in 1860, communication between the coasts required the physical transport of mail, either by ocean or land. Letters sent by steamship and rail across the Isthmus of Panama took at least three weeks to reach their destination. The alternative land routes were no faster and far less reliable.

  • “Bronco” Charlie Miller Born 1850 – Died January 15, 1955 Plot 6 Lot 22
    “Bronco” Charlie Miller Born 1850 – Died January 15, 1955 Plot 6 Lot 22 Charlie H. Miller was born between two buffalo robes in a covered wagon out west in Shasta, California in about 1850. His Father and Mother were a part of a 300 wagon train heading for Fort Sutter and the gold rush. His father had worked as a suit maker for Lord and Taylor and his mother had been a school teacher. At 11 years old, Charlie was hired as a Pony Express rider. As the story goes, Charlie and his father were in Sacramento, the western terminus of the pony Express, when the rider less horse with the bloody saddle came in. The Superintendent called for a volunteer to ride the mail to Carson City and Charlie was in the right place at the right time. And so, Bronco Charlie, Pony Express Rider was born. There were 240 riders and Charlie was the youngest. You had to be small and hardy to ride, you could weigh but 125 pounds. It was a brutal route from St. Joseph, Missouri to Sacramento, California. The Pony Express only was in operation from April 3, 1860 to October 1861. He was such a young man that it made him famous, as he was known throughout the whole United States. After Charlie’s stint in the Pony Express he went from town to town running riding stables, breaking horses and living an adventurous life for 20 years. During his 20’s, his parents were captured and scalped by Indians. In 1844 he had come east and met the great Teddy Roosevelt.

  • The Oregon to California Trail
    Number 109 Fall 2018 The Oregon to California Trail Also Known As The Old Trapper Trail and the Siskiyou Trail By Dee Owens and Richard Silva The Oregon to California Trail, sometimes referred to as the Siskiyou Trail or the Old Trapper Trail, was a trail of commerce from the beginning, one of north and south directions. It was a trail between two territories or countries, British and American to the north and Mexican to the south. It holds the distinction of being the only early trail in northern and central California to have a history of early trapper and animal herding use prior to the main emigration period. It shares this distinction with the trails of the Platt River and other eastern trails. In the north, the trail began at Fort Vancouver, head- quarters of the Hudson’s Bay Company. The current towns of Portland, Salem, Eugene, Grants Pass, and Ashland were near the route in Oregon. In California the trail passed near Yreka, Dunsmuir, Redding and south through the Sacramento Valley to San Francis- Fort Vancouver—1845 co. The Oregon to California Trail developed from early game and Indian trails into a more obvious transporta- tion route due to the large numbers of horses and pack animals in the Hudson’s Bay Brigades going to and from California. Later the demand for animals in the Willamette Valley brought enormous herds of cattle, horses, and sheep over the route, further establishing its presence. The Siskiyou Mountains were first crossed from the south in 1826-27 by the Hudson Bay Company’s Snake Country Expedition, led by Peter Skene Ogden.

  • Westward Expansion
    Westward Expansion What did the United States look like before Westward Expansion? In 1803, Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, purchased 828,000 square miles from France. This was called the Louisiana Purchase and it contained all of present-day Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, parts of Minnesota that were south of the Mississippi River, most of North Dakota, nearly all of South Dakota, northeastern New Mexico, northern Texas, the portions of Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado east of the Continental Divide, and Louisiana on both sides of the Mississippi River, including the city of New Orleans. Before the Louisiana Purchase, the United States had only 13 states. Why did President Jefferson make such a huge purchase? The main reason President Jefferson purchased this land is that New Orleans was the main port for trade. This port was used for storing export items (items leaving the United States), and it was used for importing goods from other countries. The United States was under constant threat of having this port taken away as a means of trading, so he thought it would be best for the country if he purchased it. What did Thomas Jefferson decide to do with the rest of land purchased? Since this was new land to the United States, no one really knew what was out there. President Jefferson organized an expedition to go out and explore the new land in the west. This expedition was lead by Lewis and Clark and it began in 1804. Lewis and Clark kept journals of their exploration and made maps of all of the places they went to.

  • Chapter Seven Central Overland Mail, 1850-1861
    Chapter Seven Central Overland Mail, 1850-1861 Chapter Five described the opening of private and semi-private mail services over the Central Route. Starting in 1850, the U.S. Post Office Department began to extend its overland contract mail route system westward. Figure 7-1 shows the three segments which ultimately received mail contracts along the Central Route, and the alternate California route between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City. Figure 7-1. Figure 7-1. Map of the Central Route segments, consisting of Salt Lake City-Independence; Salt Lake City-Sacramento/Los Angeles; and Salt Lake City-Oregon. Salt Lake City (in today's Utah) was the central element in this route system, and no single contract linked the east and west coasts over this route until the start of the daily overland contract mail service in July 1861. This chapter will examine the various mail contracts along the Central Route in chronological order: between Salt Lake City and Missouri, between Salt Lake City and California, and between Salt Lake City and Oregon. Contract Route between Salt Lake City and Missouri Table 7-1 summarizes the mail contracts between Salt Lake City and Missouri that are described in this chapter.
