Among the first to attract attention was the Calaveras Big Trec Grove, situated in a gently sloping and heavily timbered valley, on the divide or ridge between the San Antonio branch of the Calaveras River and the north fork of the Stanislaus River; at an elevation of 4,585 feet above the level of the sea, at a distance of 164 miles from San Francisco. Within an area of fifty acres there are ninety-four trees of a goodly size, twenty of which exceed twenty-five feet in diameter at the base, and, consequently, are about seventy-five feet in cit - cumference.


BIG TREE STUMP.


Let us first walk up on the " Big Tree Stump," not far from the botel. You see it is perfectly smooth, sound and level. Upon this stump, however incredible it may seem, thirty-two persons were engaged in dancing four sets of cotillons at one time, without suffering any inconvenience whatever; and

besides these, there were musicians and lookers-on. Across the solid wood of this stump, five and one-half feet from the ground, it measures twenty-five feet, and with the bark, twenty-eight feet, Tbink for a moment; tbe stump of a tree exceeding nine yards in diameter, and sound to the very center. There is a frame around the stump which forms the base of the house inclosing it. This is ninety-three feet seven inches in circumference at the ground; the spurs in some places pro- jecting beyond the frame, while in others they are within it. This tree when standing, was 302 feet high.


This tree employed five men for twenty-two days in felling it-not by chopping it down, but boring it off with pump augers. After the stem was severed from the stump, the uprightness of the tree and the breadth of its base sustained it in its position. To accomplish tbe feat of throwing it over, about two and a balf days of the twenty-two were spent in inserting wedges and driving them in with the butts of trees, until, at last, the noble monarch of the forest was forced to tremble, and then to fall, after braving "the battle and the breeze " for nearly 3,000 years.


THE MOTHER OF THE FOREST.


In the summer of 1854, the hark was stripped from this tree hy Mr. George Gale, for purposes of exhibition in the East, to the height of 116 feet; and it now measures in cir- eumferenee, without the hark, at the base, eighty-four feet; twenty feet from hase, sixty-nine feet; seventy feet from base, forty-three feet six inches; 116 feet from base, and up to the bark, thirty-nine feet six inches. The full circumference at the base, including bark, was ninety feet. Its height was 321 feet. The average thickness of bark was eleven inches, although in places it was ahout two feet. This tree is esti- mated to contain 537,000 feet of sound inch lumber. To the first branch it is 137 feet. The small hlaek marks upon the tree indicate the points where two and a half-inch auger holes were bored, into which rounds were inserted, by which to aseend and descend, while removing the bark. At different distances upward, especially at the top, numerous dates and names of visitors have been eut.


TALLEST TREE IN AMERICA.


The tree named "Keystone State" is the tallest living tree on the American Continent, as it measures 325 feet in height. Tbe prostrate trunk of the "Father of the Forest," although limbless, without bark, and even much of its sap decayed and gone, has proportions that still prove that at one time he was king of the grove; and although fires have burned out much of his heart, and consumed his giant limbs, the following measurements will prove that "there were giants in those days," and which even in death " still live " :-


From its roots to where the center of the trunk can be reached, it is ninety feet. The distance that one can ride


through it on horseback, is eighty-two feet six inches. Height of horseback entrance, nine feet four inches; of arch to floor, ten feet nine inches. Ten feet from the roots its diameter is twenty feet eight inches; 100 feet from roots, twelve feet one inch; 150 feet from roots, ten feet four inches; extreme length to where any sign of top could be found is 365 feet. When standing, this nohle trec must, with its foliage, have exceeded 375 feet in height. When it fell, one of its hranehes, three feet in diameter, struck " Hercules"-250 feet distant-and made an embrasure that is still visible.


THE MARIPOSA GROVE.


For several years after the discovery of the Sequoias of Cala- veras had astonished the world, that group was supposed to be the only one of the kind in existence. But, during the latter part of July, or the beginning of August, 1855, Mr. Hogg, a hunter in the employ of the South Fork Merced Canal Com- pany, saw one or more trees of the same variety and genus as those of Calaveras growing on one of the tributaries of Big Creek, and related the fact to Mr. Galen Clark and other acquaintances.


DISCOVERY OF THE GROVE.


To Mr. Hogg has heretofore been given the credit of dis- covery, because of bis articles calling attention to this grove. But the facts are, although not beretofore made publie, that the big trees in Mariposa County were first discovered by Major Burney of North Carolina (who was the first Sheriff of Mariposa County after Merced was taken off), John Macauly of Ohio, and two others. This discovery was made in the latter part of October, 1849, while in pursuit of some animals stolen hy Indians.


During the autumn of 1855, J. E. Clayton, while exploring and testing by barometrical measurements the practicability of bringing water from the branches of the San Joaquin to increase the supply of the south fork of the Merced, saw and measured tbese trees.


About the first of June, 1856, Clark and Mann discovered what has since become famous as the Mariposa Grove. This grove was visited two days after by L. A. Holmes of the Mari- posa Gazette and Judge Fitzhugh of Snelling, wbile hunting, and afterwards by Mr. Hutchings in 1859. The average height of the Mariposa trecs is less than that of the Calaveras while the circumference of the latter is greater.


SIZE OF THE MARIPOSA TREES.


Professor J. D., Whitney, when State Geologist, measured nearly tbe whole of the trees in this grove, and from whom we glean the following: "The grant made by Congress to the State is two miles square, and embraces in reality two distinet, or nearly distinct, groves. The upper grove is in a pretty compact

body, containing, on an area of 3,700 by 2,300 feet in dimen- sions, just 365 trees of the Sequoia gigantea, of a diameter of one foot and over, besides a great number of smaller ones. Several of the trees in this grove have been named, some of them, indecd, half a dozen times; there are no names, however, which seem to have become current, as is the case in the Cala- veras Grove. The average size of the trees in this grove is greater than those of Calaveras. There is a burnt stump on the north side of the grove, nearly all gone, but indicating a tree of a size perhaps a little greater than any now existing here. The beauty of the Mariposa Grove has been sadly marred by the ravages of fire, which has evidently swept through it again and again, alnost ruining many of the finest trees. Still, the general appearance of the grove is extremely grand and imposing. There are about 125 trees over forty fect in circum- ference.


LARGEST TREE IN THE WORLD,


In the Tuolumne Grove is the only tree in the world where a stage-coach loaded with passengers is able to pass through, The archway is ten feet wide by twelve fect high, and yet leaves ten feet six inches on one side the arch, and ten feet two inches on the other. The tree, when in its prime, was 120 feet in circumference, and was, without doubt, the largest in circumference in the world, The diameter of this tree was over forty feet; the stump still standing, without any bark, is tbirty feet eight inches in diameter.


Stage passing through a tree,


THE MERCED GROVE,


In order to enable tourists to see these forest monarchs, the Coulterville and Yo Semite wagon road was built directly through the grove. Dr. J. T. McLean informs us that there are fifty Sequoia trees, small and large, herc; fully twenty-five of which are from forty-five to eighty feet in circumference. The large trees are wonderfully beautiful and well preserved,


retaining their enormous size for from 150 to 200 feet of their height; and are as magnificent specimens of vegetable growtb, as are to be found in the world, only two or three of the num- ber being injured, and only one prostrated, by fire. To those whose time is limited, there are many advantages in riding in carriages directly through these truly remarkable groves.


FRESNO BIG TREES.


Messrs. McKiernan, Manley and Hubbs, of Visalia, shipped from Tulare City a section of one of the largest, if not the largest, of all the big trees that have yet been discovered in California. The tree from which this section was taken was 111 feet in circumference at the butt, and stood 250 feet in height, at which elevation it was broken off. At the breaking- off' place it was twelve feet in diameter. These gentlemen have been at work getting this section ready for exhibition for nearly a year. This section is fourteen feet in height, and was cut from tbe body of the tree twelve feet from the ground, the base being so irregular in form, the irregularity extending up from the roots, that it was inexpedient to take the lowest part. At the distance of twelve feet from the ground the tree was twenty- six feet six inches in diameter, this being the diameter of the base of the section exhibited. The top of the tree, or stub, as it really was' was felled twenty-six feet from the ground, the labor of felling it occupying four men nine days, with axes, It made a noise when it came down that reverberated through the mountains like a peal of thunder. The work of taking out the section which is exhibited was then commenced from the top. The men dug the inside of the tree out with axes, these tools being the only ones that could be used to advantage. The wood was left six inches thick, exclusive of tbe bark, which ranges from three to ten inches in thickness.


BIG TREE ON EXHIBITION.


The diameter of the tree where it was felled (the diameter of the top of the section that is to be exbibited), is twenty-one feet. This shell was sawed down, making fifteen gigantic slabs. Tbis tree stood six miles away from a public road, and a road was built this whole distance in order to get this section of the tree out. Each slab made a load for eight borses. The whole fifteen make two car loads. The owners of this great natural curiosity exhibited it in the East and expected to make some money out of it, but strange to say, it failed to draw, and tbe owners never realized the first cost out of its exhibition. It was put up on Market Street in San Francisco where the writer vis- ited the interior which made a large room. On one side was a staging erected for visitors with a band stand on the opposite side. Around the interior were bung pictures of other large trees. It would bold a great many people at one time, and was a real curiosity.

FOREWORD


This is the third personal name index to be prepared from the biographical section of the local history card file in the Reference Department of the California State College, Stanislaus, Library. The first part of the History of Merced County, California ... , is a short general history of California and is not included in the index. The indexing includes only the history of the county, pages 94 through 232. Like the first and second indexes, it was edited by J. Carlyle Parker, Assistant Director and Head of Public Services, and was prepared by student employees under his direction. The final typing of this index was completed by library staff member, Vicky R. Smithcamp.


The information in this new index constitutes only a small number of the references in the biographical card file for the counties of Calaveras, Mariposa, Merced, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Tuolumne. That file contains the names of all local persons mentioned in nine books of local history, including George H. Tinkham's History of Stanislaus County, Sol Elias' Stories of Stanislaus, John Outcalt's History of Merced County, the History of Stanislaus County (1881), and Memorial and Biographical History of the Counties of Merced, Stanislaus, Calaveras, Tuolumne, and Mariposa, California. The personal name indexes for the last two works were published in 1970 and 1973.


The local history card file at Cal-State, Stanislaus, Library is available to all scholars interested in local history research.
