Valley after this family. On board were Hiram Scott's father Daniel,
his brothers George Edwin and Joseph Wellington, his sister Zylphia Caroline,
and George's wife Anna. George Hodgdon, a cousin of Hiram traveled with
the Scott family on the George Raynes. In 1905 Joseph Scott,
one of Hiram's brothers, recalled the Scotts Valley of 1853 to a reporter
for the Santa Cruz Surf. He remembered horses and cattle roamed
wild. The Scotts corralled 250 horses for their own. In 1853, they harvested
10,000 bushels of wheat and barley that was sent to Santa Cruz by ox team,
and then to San Francisco by ship.

The Maritime Heritage Project is committed to providing free information to everyone; the focus is world shipping during the 1800s, with a concentration on San Francisco Bay during the Gold Rush years.America was created by everyone and belongs to everyone; early settlers came over land bridges in the Bering Straits from Russia and Japan, up and down coastlines, across the Continent on foot and with horses, by early sailors from France, England, Russia, Spain, and, perhaps, by Polynesian people.
