DESCRIPTION:On September 9, 1850, California officially became our 31st State of the 
 United States of America via passage and signing US Senate Bill 169, yes 
 that initial California 169.\n\nFrom Old Sacramento to Negro Bar, Mormon 
 Island and Negro Hill, our 1849 California Gold Mining District, the 
 world's first "viral story" comes alive at breakfast, 2024 California 
 Admission Day, Leidesdorff Plaza, Historic Folsom Station.\n\nEarly 
 California written history begins with the early 16th-century romance novel 
 entitled, Las Sergas de Esplandián (The Adventures of Esplandián), Baja 
 Sur and Alta California named of an island populated by Negro women 
 warriors, led by Queen Califia.\n\nThe authentic history of Historic Negro 
 Bar, Alta California held captive by a new California Legislative 
 appropriation to CA State Parks who may explore CA Pan African 
 contributions during the transition from Mexican rule to United States 
 Military conquest, apart of various State Parks statewide.\n\nHonorable 
 William Alexander Leidesdorff, Jr. acquired Rancho Rio De Los Americanos in 
 1844. His 35,521 acre Mexican Land Grant, uniquely stipulated that he would 
 not disturb the migrations of Nisenan/Maidu nations upon land newly 
 entitled to the man we affectionately call today, our "African Founding 
 Father of California."\n\nBeginning in January 1848, throughout the initial 
 California Gold Mining District along today's American River Basin, people 
 of Pan African Ancestry remain key salient contributors to the forward flow 
 of humanity.\n\nGold was discovered upstream along the south fork of the 
 American River in Coloma Valley.\nIn the initial Gold Mining District, 
 prospecting for gold was a very difficult, a physical full-time occupation, 
 usually driving most men mad and financially destitute.\n\nThe leading 
 regional mining towns of Negro Hill, Mormon Island and Negro Bar were well 
 established by fall of 1849 as political notions evolved far away at Colton 
 Hall, Monterey during the California Constitution Convention and initial 
 California State Legislature.\n\nOn September 9, 1850, officially 
 California Admission Day, our gold mining town of Negro Bar, Sacramento 
 County was a bustling transportation hub for the regional gold mining 
 district and offered a very unique strategic location for regional economic 
 development.\n\nNew York Railroad Engineer Theodore Judah created a survey 
 map, dated September 1854 that was utilized to show the viability and 
 strategic importance of the first Commerical Railroad in the West. Wall 
 Street, NY financial markets invested in the construction of the Sacramento 
 Valley Railroad, Inc, that terminated at the crossing of the American River 
 at Negro Bar, Sacramento County.\n\nSeptember 9, 1850, is California 
 Admission Day, let's explore the opportunities.\n\nEveryone is invited to 
 celebrate the official birthday of our Great State of California and 
 reflect upon authentic history of the Gold Mining Towns of Mormon Island, 
 Negro Hill and Negro Bar, along today's American River Parkway, City of 
 Folsom, California and after lunch at our California State Capitol.\n
