It was a place for native gatherings until May 15, 1850. On that date, a regiment of the 1st Dragoons of the U.S. Cavalry, commanded by Capt. Nathaniel Lyon and Lt. J.W. Davidson, massacred nearly the entire native population of the island. Most were women and children. This act was in reprisal for the killing of Andrew Kelsey and Charles Stone who had long enslaved, brutalized, and starved indigenous people in the area. The island, now a hill surrounded by reclaimed land, remains a sacred testament to this sacrifice of innocents.<br /><br />Plaque placed by the State Department of Parks and Recreation in cooperation with the Lucy Moore Foundation, California Department of Transportation, and United States Forest Service, May 15, 2005. <p></p> Registered 3/16/1949 http://landmarkquest.com/omeka/files/original/1904a959af2b0bb06b912ba61b8b427e.JPG 2ae7cb8292efa4b04eb703c48cd77aa7 http://landmarkquest.com/omeka/files/original/3df8cde7823ad038dec21a9317d42ee2.JPG 0f8a9715b60fca1512ef876c65ea2567 http://landmarkquest.com/omeka/files/original/fbccee17fe4fa84653da915a14257d7b.JPG fdf76443234f9f974276eae1b3fd1be1 http://landmarkquest.com/omeka/files/original/f5318e3ce93598bd4287c3570de20796.JPG 2ff5d532af10507689a0b25d8bf4c3cf http://landmarkquest.com/omeka/files/original/1dda0494fa628be13034dd09d83e703c.JPG 79f3a39b6aa8b0ec512d3c1c3b565b5c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
