EARLY CALIFORNIA GENEALOGY
MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING
FACTUAL REPRESENTATION
NOT RETREAD HISTORY
Folks, there is not much early California Genealogy. If it can be found, it must include the names of the Indian Tribes, the Mexicans, the Pioneer White settlers, the Mormon Battalions, the California Militia and those who participated in the settlement and occupation of early California. Here is the story entitled
RENEGADE SAILOR - COWBOY
By Flora Weed Hicks
the story of a seaman who jumped ship only to play a leading role in the uprisings of California for which he was later hung. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest.
Here’s one of ‘em.
Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell.
This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost.
Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive.
I hope you appreciate the effort.
Folks, sooner or later – Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer’s dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, it’s worth all the time I spend. As a tribute to the honor of our American Indians, my indexed listings will include all Indian names mentioned in the story from this time on

While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that.
What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete and seldom found western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color.
As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
