There is a small IndianCemetery north of Redding in a community called Castella.  My Greatx 3 Grandparents are buried there; David Holman and his wife who was aWintun Indian.  Since she did not read or write, so her name was spelledin a variety of ways depending on who was doing the
writing, it could appearas Siamat, Siamit, Symatee, Symotee, Simonota or Simartea.  She alsowent by the white names of Mattie and Kate.  If anyone is by chancenear enough to take a look I'd like to get pictures of the headstones. I'll happily return the favor for anyone who needs courtesy work done inAtchison or Leavenworth Counties, Kansas.

SURNAME: HALL,OAK/OAKES, SHEAER

I am looking for a deathcertificate or entry for WILLIAM J. OAKS/OAKES. He was born in Maine 1833,and supposedly died August 26, 1901, in Millville, CA. I don't know ifhe is buried locally or not, but I doubt it. The family left ME, came toCA (around 1880) then on to Colville, WA. He divorced his wife OLIVE B(HALL) OAKS/OAKES 1888 and remarried CLARA SHEARER of Montana.  Ibelieve his family had property in Shasta County and I'm wondering if thereis a probate or will for him also. The family possibly came to Shasta Co.around the 1880's as they were in Yuba Co. for the census. I did noticethat there are other HALL people living in Shasta Co but I don't know ifthey are related at this time. They would be if they are from HATEVIL HALL,son of JOHN HALL OF DOVER.

Thanks very much,

My Grandfather was FredP. Signett and his date of birth is 11/08/1894.  I don't know whenhe died exactly, but I think it was a couple of years after my grandmotherso 1961-1963.  What I am trying to find out is......if there is anyinformation that can be gleaned from the records in Redding, CA that willlead me to either of their families......their place of birth, parentsnames etc.   Before her death, my mother told me that my grandfatherhad worked for Shasta County in the road department.  That would havebeen in the 1940' and 50's she thought. Any information would be more thanI have now.  Since this is the sum of what I know.

Are there surnames ofthe people who lived in Kennet City before Shasta Lake was made?
I have a copy of a deedof Ebeneezer Jones with Charles Sturtevant that was dated  10 Apr1920.
Ebeneezer Jones marriedJessie Wright b. 2 Jan 1888 in Douglas County Oregon, then lived in Kennett.I don't know when nor where they got married. Jessie's parents were EzekielWright and Nancy Jane Gibbs. Nancy was called Mary and Jennie by two differentrelative families.  Jessie's sister is Ethel and she married CharlesSturtevant and that is how the connection of the deed is. I don't knowwhere or when they got married. Ezekiel dies young in 1894 and Nancy hassome of her children raised by others.

From distant relativesthey have letters that say Ethel marries again to a Mr. Harrington witha son Harold Harrington. He birth, I am not sure when she was born. WithEzekiel dying in 1894 Edith would have been born after 1882 and before1888. I believe she was born before Jessie but I could be wrong-for sureshe was created before 1894.  Some of the Wright's moved to Calif.and I can't seem to find more information on them nor on Ethel nor Jessie.

Jessie and Ethel's brotherWalter lived near Fort Klamath and he had married Carrie unknown maidenname. Walter died in July 16, 1965 and maybe Carrie went to relatives inCalif.? She had a daughter Martha Sullivan. I don't know if Carrie's maidenname was Sullivan.

This family is a brickwall for me. I am hoping maybe someone in the Shasta County would rememberany of the above names or that there is information at one time on them. There maybe be a chance that cousins or relatives
moved with them?

SURNAMES: BAKER,BAKER-LONGACRE

Looking for informationon a Ella Mae Baker/Bakerlongacre born 12-17-1923 in Minneapolis Minnesota. I believe her parents names were Charles & Ella Mae Foster.  TheCalifornia Death Records said she died at age 33 on 10-02-1957,  InShasta County, California. I found this information on the  secondreline where it states her name  as Baker, and under it says the samething but has the Longacre after the Baker name.  I'm wondering ifthat was a mistake and the Long Acre is where she lived?   Hopingsomeone might know of or have some information on this person?  Ifso please contact me.  I am her great niece looking to find out ifshe had family.

Thank you,  Connie

My younger cousins in Chickamauga,Ga. are trying to find thier history. Grandpa Merritt married Leola Kelley,who I understand was part Cherokee. Her uncles owned the Kelly log cabinin Chickamauga Nat. Battlefield, which still stands today. It was the headquartersfor both sides as the battle raged. The park service refused all of thefamilys requests to change the spelling to Kelley.  I am a retiredpolice officer from Miami, as was my father. Please let me know if anyof this strikes a bell.

I would like to inquireabout any information relating to Emery Noble. I know he went to schoolin Old Shasta when he was 14 years old. That would have been about 1866.One of his classmates was James E. Isaac, later a lawyer in Redding. Iknow that he went on to marry Ada Zumwalt and later died in Anderson in1900.

I main query is abouthis father, whom I have tried to trace for years. I have seen him calledWilliam, G.Washington, Washington in various records. I believe he camefrom Wis. with his son Emery. I do not know of any other children. W. Nobledied in Red Bluff, Mar. 12, 1885. I know that. I know that W.H. Noble soldthe information about Noble pass (trail) to the business men of Old Shastain 1852 for $2000. Could this be the same man? Emery was my grandfatherand was killed when my father was only 4, so he knew little about him,and even less about his parents.

Any information wouldbe much appreciated. I am living in Manitoba and can't really come to searchon my own.  Arthalyn Noble (lkublick@mail.svsd35.mb.ca)

SURNAMES:ULTZ, UTBZ, UTTEZ, ULSH, ULTSCH (or any other variation)

Iam looking for information on the ULTZ family that came to Shasta County,California from Marion County, Ohio in the mid to late 1800's. C. UTBZand C. UTTEZ are listedin the 1860 Census of Shasta County as numbers 736 and 737 (respectively).The town is listed as Cottonwood. Christopher ULTZ, hiswifeLydia Ann (nee KNISELY) ULTZ were there with their children: AliceSarah,Anthony A. (perhaps called Adam) and William A. ULTZ - all born inOhio.One other daughter, Ada Luella ULTZ was born 13 APR 1860 in ShastaCounty,California. Marriages: Alice Sarah ULTZ married Mr. W. H. ANGELLofShasta, Ada Luella ULTZ married Mr. William Dunham FARREN of Yolo County,California.The family left Shasta County and moved to Idaho around 1865 -1868.There is no mention of Lydia Ann (nee KNISELY) ULTZ in Idaho, so shemusthave died in Shasta County. If anyone can help with marriage, birth ordeathrecords as well as any newspaper articles that may have been about theabovelisted people, it would be greatly appreciated. Copy and mailing feeswillbe reimbursed.
