    Remembering the Bear Flag Revolt of 1846: Today’s Narratives of Sonoma County’s Past by Rudy Alexander Dinarte A thesis submitted to Sonoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in Cultural Resources Management Committee Members: Alexis Boutin, Ph.D., Chair Steve Estes, Ph.D. Margaret Purser, Ph.D. December 11, 2020 Copyright 2020 By Rudy Alexander Dinarte ii AUTHORIZATION FOR REPRODUCTION OF MASTER’S THESIS I grant permission for the print or digital reproduction of parts of this thesis without further authorization from me, on the condition that the person or agency requesting reproduction absorb the cost and provide proper acknowledgment of authorship. Permission to reproduce this thesis in its entirety must be obtained from me. Rudy A. Dinarte December 11, 2020 iii ABSTRACT Purpose of the Study: In this thesis, I present a collaborative, community-based approach to a cultural resources management-style project. Typically, consultation is limited to descendant communities, but this collaborative approach includes a more expansive definition of stakeholder. In 2014, two members of the Santa Rosa Rural Cemetery Preservation Committee resumed a quest to locate the burials of two casualties of the Bear Flag Revolt of 1846. While their remains were not found, this project was still able to initiate a larger conversation about how Sonoma County’s shared past is remembered and how archaeologists could approach community involvement in future projects. Procedure: Through oral history interviews and site visits in Sonoma County, I investigated how the Bear Flag Revolt is remembered and how historical narratives of the Revolt have been created.
