Possibly unique. James Mills and brother Edgar arrived in California first. Darius Ogden Mills followed. In 1850 the company was listed as Auction and Commission Agents. However, they would soon be in the banking business. In 1852 James bought the building that would soon be owned solely be D. O. Mills in Columbia. In 1853 James and D. O. were partners in Sacramento in the D. O. Mills & Co. bank. [Daily Alta California, CDNC and Cross]Number 3182 for 500 shares in the James Mill & Company. Issued to J. R. Miller.
