Description: This map was released in 1869. It represents a land survey of the Mendocino Indian Reservation which was in operation from 1856 through 1864, and was officially closed in 1866. The reservations headquarters and it's onsite military fort were located on what is now the town of Fort Bragg, California. Unlike many other reservations, the ownership of this land was retained by the federal government. In 1869 lands were put up for sale, and sold off to the (non- Indian) public for $1.25 an acre.
