Your site is WONDERFUL. I am researching two aspects of early California history: music/dance, and architecture (no, there's no real connection between them for me; they're simply both research projects). I haven't finished searching your site yet, but I'm looking forward to it! The footnote to the Bidwell article, ". . .Pio Pico . . . is still living in Los Angeles." is priceless. Thanks for the good work. I'll be back. Chuck

A 15-year resident of San Francisco and the Bay Area, I moved East in 1990, and have not had the opportunity of visiting the Museum in person..as I consider San Francisco my "Home", this site is a gift! Historically, the depth and range of materials is outstanding, and so much more could be added ~ especially given the cultural, architectural, socio-economic and ongoing transition of this magnificent City as we approach a new Century..a look at San Francisco~1899/1900 & 1999/2000 would be an exciting and educational program. Congratulations on what you have given all of us, and if I am able to return in September for a visit, I will make the Museum one of my first destinations. Thank you!

After taking this course I more appreciative of all the historical places I have not visited yet. I want to visit Mission Dolores again and look more at the artifacts left by the Ohlone people. I can't believe North Beach was mostly landfill. Keep up the good work and if anyone in the city gets a chance check out the 9 to 10 am course at City College of SF taught by Ms. Alioto. " "

If there is anything I can do let me know. Best regards and keep up the good work. Kevin Mullen
