Lawsuit Update From the New 49'ers
December 2012

The Treasure Detective—Part III
September 2006
In the 1800s, rich silver and gold mines along the eastern Sierras were supplied from Los Angeles by a wagon road with an important stage stop at Freeman Junction. Wagons carrying the gold and silver back from the mines to Los Angeles followed the same wagon road.
