Several days before its signing, gold was discovered at Sutter s Mill in what is now Sacramento. The non-Native population of the territory was less than one thousand in 1848, but the gold rush increased that number to one hundred thousand by the end of 1849. The gold rush not only made many people wealthy, it brought ecologic devastation while speeding up California s statehood.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Kailua-Kona Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 979.404 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 979.404 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 979.404 Sh Checked In Add Copy to MyList
