Sacramento Pioneer Association

Recorded within these pages is the history of the Sacramento Pioneer Association during the organization's formative first six years. Founded in 1854 by pioneers of the California Gold Rush, the Sacramento Pioneer Association was an historical, civic and cultural society composed of some of Sacramento's most prominent men. Transcribed from newspaper articles contemporary with that bygone era, "News of the Day" is a journey back in time, back to the American Victorian era of California, back to the lives and times of the Sacramento Pioneers.
