Inscription. We honor the earliest interments of our pioneers whose wooden crosses, slabs and markers have been destroyed by the erosion of time. They were immigrants and adventurers who answered the call of gold. Some stayed to become packers, merchants, farmers and warriors. Their courage and tenacity overcame hardships forging the community we have today.
