If he was brought to Humboldt County it would have been up to Hoopa. They have lots of the records still up there from the boarding school. Garberville was just a wide spot in the road back then. In fact, Garberville is still just a wide spot in the road <g>

The roads going north and south didn't really exist. The only way in and out of the county back then was by steamer unless you came over the mountains from the valley via Redding.

There also lots of records in the Humboldt Room in the main branch of the Humboldt County Library in Eureka.

The local historical society has some real good sources also.

Oh, and HSU has lots of records there too.

You happen to know if migration connections continued into
sharecroppers. Somehow my grandfather was reunited w a chunk of his
family from OK reservation he was bought off of at age 16 to CA where
they were typical of Grapes of Wrath. Garberville or Humboldt
