Synopsis "Lost Gold Rush Towns of Sacramento"

The Cannibal CityIn the early days of the California Gold Rush, Sacramento City had several competing towns vying for the influx of newcomers. Many of its rivals not only had vibrant multicultural communities but also enjoyed superior geography for transportation and flood control. Even the initial land grant from Johann Sutter is considered controversial if not downright fiction, yet Sacramento thrived where others failed. Once-bustling Mormon Island was initially the proposed site of the railway that would end up bypassing it, and Brighton became a hotbed of agitation after the deadly "Squatters' Riot," leading to its decline. Hoboken, Prairie City and more were also wiped off the map. The Special Collections of the Sacramento Public Library explores the history of these lost Sacramentos.
