24, 1848, when gold was found by James W.Marshall at Sutter's
Mill in Coloma, California The firstto hear confirmed information
of the Gold Rush were thepeople in Oregon, the Sandwich Islands
(Hawaii),
and Latin America, who were the first to start flockingto the
state in late 1848. All told, the news of goldbrought some 300,000
people to California from the restof the United States and abroad.
