Mariposa
Historic Photos-
The images in the Mariposa County
Library's
image gallery were generously provided by local museums, pioneer
families,
and historians. The collections depict varied aspects of life through
the
years in the foothills and mountains of Mariposa County,
California. Images
include famous locales, small town events, Native Californians, family
portraits and well-known individuals. Some of the photograph
collections
are quite large, and are represented here by only a few selected images.

**This one is a sleeper, I have found recordings here of probate related decrees from other counties incl. San Francisco. Mainly they had lived or acquired property in Mariposa and the heirs had to file copies of the probate decree from the other county to be able to do whatever with the Mariposa asset. They have in the book along with name of deceased; administrator, names of heirs, Ct of origin for the probate and book/page for the microfiche copy of the document.
The Yosemite Research Library is open to the public. Tuesday - Friday,
8-12 and 1-5. Also some Mondays.

The museum staff works Monday - Friday 8-5. The Museum Curator is Jonathan
Bayless, 209 372-0282; Museum Collections Manager, Barbara Beroza 209

With only one person operating the library and a very small staff in the
museum, we must request that individuals come to the library and museum to
do their research. We just don't have available staff to do research for
people. For the museum, an appointment is necessary. It's best to arrange
an appointment with Barbara Beroza or Miriam Luchans. An appointment is not
needed to visit the library, but call ahead to confirm the library is open.
