When was Yosemite established? Any maps showing creeks in the area?
Looking for information on when Yosemite was established. What was the area called before it was Yosemite? Read an article saying it was established in 1870s. Is that correct?
Are there any maps available to show creeks in the area?
Working on Randolph genealogy who lived in Yosemite. Hoping to establish if it was always called Yosemite during the time Robert and his father John Wesley lived there.
Robert Randolph b 10 Oct 1879 d 15 Mar 1970
his father - John Wesley Randolph b 1850 d 01 Apr 1930
Story has it that Robert lived all his life at Hites Creek, near Yosemite. He purchased property across the road from his father's property. Robert's wife Stella was from Doe Creek.
Is Hites Creek considered in Yosemite or was it a separate town? Robert's children always called home as Yosemite.
What would be the closest genealogy society or organization that might have early records for the people who lived there?
Thank you for any help given.
