The Story Catchers of ​Southern Humboldt


April 30, 2015
​2:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m.

Join Jerry Rohde  for a PowerPoint presentation about the Indians of southern Humboldt County, and the people who told and recorded their stories. Starting in the early 1900s, a dedicated group of researchers located and interviewed a handful of Indian elders who told them the stories of the tribes of the Van Duzen, Eel and Mattole rivers. The Indians from these areas were nearly all killed during the holocaust of the 1850s and 1860s, but a handful survived to describe an almost forgotten world, where the Lolahnkoks, Nongatls, Mattoles and other tribal groups lived in a land that, for a time, was nearly a paradise. Admission is free!
