During the long summer of 1849 there was an
unbroken line of wagons reaching from horizon to horizon. Cholera, scurvy,
dysentry, accident, thirst, hunger, fatigue, Indian attack, quarrels, discouragement
and other ills plagued these trains. As in other years, all of these obstacles
were offset by the hope for a better future in the form of gold or land.The
majority of this endless line of humanity was aimed toward the promise of gold
and riches in California. It was estimated that over 35,000 individuals
took part in this great overland migration. Of these, only a very few
turned off for Oregon.
"Emigrant parties are coming in slowly from the mountains. Inclusive of a company of 27 wagons, the arrival of which is daily expected, there have been 55 wagons arrived in this Valley. Others are reported as coming." [October 18, 1849 Oregon Spectator]
