Yosemite: the Park and its Resources (1987) by Linda W. Greene
Dr. J. L. Cogswell stated in 1910 that he and eight others discovered the grove on 10 May 1858. Their party had left Garrote, near Big Oak Flat, for a sightseeing trip to Yosemite Valley. While encamped at Crane Flat, one of the party shot a deer, but the wounded animal ran away. The next day the party set out on the trail of the deer and came by accident upon a group of magnificent trees. So overawed were they that they forgot the deer and spent the day exploring the area.
They particularly noted a giant tree with its interior hollowed out by fire. They named it King Solomon's Temple, although it later came to be called the Dead Giant. Cogswell immediately reported his discovery to the San Francisco, Daily Evening Bulletin, and the grove quickly became a regular stop for tourists on their way to the valley.
William McCarthy, Dave Lumsden, and James J. Lumsden carved out the Dead Giant Tree in 1878, creating a tunnel through which stages passed for many years. According to Hutchings, this was the first giant sequoia tree cut through. W. G. Marshall, who visited the Big Tree groves and Yosemite Valley in June of that year, related:
We came to the Tuolumne Big Tree Grove, [and came upon] . . . a tunnel through the stump of one of the largest sequoias in the grove, through which the road passes, and the stagecoach is driven. . . . The tunnel measures 12 feet, and it is 10 1/2 feet wide at the top. . . . The tunnel had only been completed a week before our visit to the grove, the first coachful having passed through the stump on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 18.

Yosemite: the Park and its Resources (1987) by Linda W. Greene
Dr. J. L. Cogswell stated in 1910 that he and eight others discovered the grove on 10 May 1858. Their party had left Garrote, near Big Oak Flat, for a sightseeing trip to Yosemite Valley. While encamped at Crane Flat, one of the party shot a deer, but the wounded animal ran away. The next day the party set out on the trail of the deer and came by accident upon a group of magnificent trees. So overawed were they that they forgot the deer and spent the day exploring the area.
They particularly noted a giant tree with its interior hollowed out by fire. They named it King Solomon's Temple, although it later came to be called the Dead Giant. Cogswell immediately reported his discovery to the San Francisco, Daily Evening Bulletin, and the grove quickly became a regular stop for tourists on their way to the valley.
William McCarthy, Dave Lumsden, and James J. Lumsden carved out the Dead Giant Tree in 1878, creating a tunnel through which stages passed for many years. According to Hutchings, this was the first giant sequoia tree cut through. W. G. Marshall, who visited the Big Tree groves and Yosemite Valley in June of that year, related:
We came to the Tuolumne Big Tree Grove, [and came upon] . . . a tunnel through the stump of one of the largest sequoias in the grove, through which the road passes, and the stagecoach is driven. . . . The tunnel measures 12 feet, and it is 10 1/2 feet wide at the top. . . . The tunnel had only been completed a week before our visit to the grove, the first coachful having passed through the stump on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 18.

The valley (Yosemite) was first brought to the notice of the public in 1854 by Lieutenant Moore of Fort Miller. It was first visited by James M. Hutchings in 1855. He was then publishing Hutchings Magazine, the first magazine of the coast. The Rev. J. C. Simmons, South Methodist, in July, 1856, preached the first sermon. July 4th he delievered the first oration. Congress in 1858 deeded the Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Big Trees to California. Mr. Hutchings was appointed as guardian and with his family lived six months in every year, prisoners, unable to leave the valley because of the deep snow on the mountain top. In 1873 the rights of the settlers, J. M. Hutchings, J. C. Lemon, A. G. Black and Ira B. Folsom, were purchased by the state, and a wagon road built into the valley. The Stoneman House was erected and a line of stages run from Merced. Up to this time all tourists were compelled to ride twenty-five miles on horseback. A few years ago the state tired of the upkeep of the valley, which they had shamefully neglected, and returned it to the United States government. They sent regulars to guard the valley from further spoliation and began to improve and restore its natural beauty. Now, under strict military regulations, automobiles are permitted to enter the valley.

The valley (Yosemite) was first brought to the notice of the public in 1854 by Lieutenant Moore of Fort Miller. It was first visited by James M. Hutchings in 1855. He was then publishing Hutchings Magazine, the first magazine of the coast. The Rev. J. C. Simmons, South Methodist, in July, 1856, preached the first sermon. July 4th he delievered the first oration. Congress in 1858 deeded the Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Big Trees to California. Mr. Hutchings was appointed as guardian and with his family lived six months in every year, prisoners, unable to leave the valley because of the deep snow on the mountain top. In 1873 the rights of the settlers, J. M. Hutchings, J. C. Lemon, A. G. Black and Ira B. Folsom, were purchased by the state, and a wagon road built into the valley. The Stoneman House was erected and a line of stages run from Merced. Up to this time all tourists were compelled to ride twenty-five miles on horseback. A few years ago the state tired of the upkeep of the valley, which they had shamefully neglected, and returned it to the United States government. They sent regulars to guard the valley from further spoliation and began to improve and restore its natural beauty. Now, under strict military regulations, automobiles are permitted to enter the valley.

The Luther Ashley California Gold Mining Collection, Factory Engraved Colt Models 1849 & House Pistol, Model 1851 and US Model 1860
By Annie Bastendorf
Taking Stock #35: The Luther Ashley California Gold Mining Collection, Factory Engraved Colt Models 1849 & House Pistol, Model 1851 and US Model 1860
Luther Ashley was born in Ohio in 1834 and died in California in 1930. He was a California miner who came to Sutter County California in search of Gold, which he found and became the first of 3 generations of Ashley family miners.
At the age of 30 (in 1865), Luther Ashley enlisted in Company G of the 191st Ohio Infantry Regiment to fight for the Union. Luther Mustered out of the Service 6 months after enlistment and moved to California. The exact date he, his son Lloyd and his wife Melissa went to California is uncertain, though there are copies of his 1891 military benefits filing, from California, and an 1888 Sutter County California (Yuba City) voter registration sheet, listing Luther Ashley.
Luther Ashley came from a family of means, evidenced by his move to California, the scale of the California Mining operation, the Rolls Royce in the photograph and the quality of his guns… Two photographs show the mining operation, Navajo Indians and much equipment. The earliest pictures are dated December 1916 and show the caravan going to the mine with kegs that are “not beer” and another with Indians in the background.
The back side of the picture showing the Indians is written “Caterpillar is the only animal we have found so far that will make the Navajo Indian get off the road they are road hogs / x Indian teamster beating at”. There is an x on the picture where we assume an Indian was beaten… (?) The pictures show life in California when it still was the frontier; they are personal, they document the journey and two are marked in hand, likely by Luther or Melissa.
Luther Ashley came to California with a Colt Model 1860 serial number 90812, Colt Model 1851 serial number 36584, A Colt .31 Caliber Percussion serial number 95018 which is beautifully engraved and a Colt House Pistol serial number 755. These were the firearms that were carried by Luther throughout his brief military Service (we understand it was specifically the 1860), his Journey westward and his days mining. His descendants also had some history with the mine and the guns…
The exact date is unknown, but ownership of the mines and firearms was transferred to Luther’s son, Lloyd. Lloyd continued to run the mine and was listed as a Miner on his 1957 Death Certificate. The death certificate lists the cause of death as “”Self inflicted gunshot wound – head” “in Mine tunnel” at “Granite Mine, Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne – Calif”. Lloyd was a veteran of the Army Air Corps, but was otherwise a dedicated miner. Included with the collection are pictures (or copies) of Lloyd, his Air Corps compass and the camera that much of these pictures were taken with.
Lloyd passed the mine and all the property to his son, Robert Ashley (Luther’s Grandson), and there are Quitclaim deeds and paperwork here listing both Robert and Lloyd Ashley. These are dated 1949, prior to Lloyd’s death. Robert apparently continued the mining operation, though nothing like his father and grandfather had. Robert’s Death Certificate lists his occupation as a Mover, apparently the first non-miner Ashley in three generations. Robert, or Bobby Ashley, left the mine and all the property associated to his ancestors to me (Annie Bastendorf).
Bobby was my Mom’s final companion and I was his last caregiver. As much as I would like to continue the long history of mining at the California mines, which I now own, I cannot yet find the mines. I am liquidating the estate of mining equipment and all the personal belongings of the Ashley family, to generate the finds to find these mines and reestablish a claim. Perhaps someday I can carry on the legacy of the Ashley Family miner. He was Miner at Granite Mine, Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne Co., CA. He appeared on the census of 1880. He appeared on the census of 1900 at Sutter Co., CA; w/parents & 1st wife Ethel.5 He appeared on the census of 1910 at Sutter Co., CA.2 He appeared on the census of 1920 at Alameda Co., CA.6 He appeared on the census of 1930. He lived between 1942 and 1944 at Groveland, Tuolumne Co., CA; pr/Voter Registrations.
Lloyd continued to run the mine and was listed as a Miner on his 1957 Death Certificate. The death certificate lists the cause of death as “”Self inflicted gunshot wound – head” “in Mine tunnel” at “Granite Mine, Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne – Calif”.1,3 He was buried at Divide Cemetery 3/368, Big Oak Flat, Tuolumne Co., California.4
