This Bond of the County of Humboldt is early, colorful and in great shape. Very early number '9'. Signed by George Williams and William McKenna. Williams came West in 1850, driving an ox team a part of the way, but walking the entire distance from Green River to Hangtown, where he arrived almost penniless. For ten months he worked in a bakery, then for some months worked in the mines, and from 1852 to 1854 he carried on a bakery at Weaverville. he tried stock raising in 1856 brought his first herd of cattle to Humboldt county. In 1867 brought his family to Hydesville, Humboldt county, and in 1885 removed to Ferndale where he lived his life. (Prag collection)
