This past weekend I was
doing some research on my great grand uncle Charles. He was born in West
Virginia in 1823. He attended Medical School at the University of Pennsylvania
and was practicing medicine by 1849. He arrived in San Francisco California in
1856. By 1857 he was a California State Assemblyman representing El Dorado
County.
El Dorado is Gold Country
and nestles on and around the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The county seat is
Placerville and it was the center hub of the California Gold Rush.
The land is a lush
combination of fields of glorious green in the summer and glowing amber in the
summer and fall. It is filled with gentle valleys, forests, rivers, and lakes.
This week we present Artz of
El Dorado
