Gold Dust Bags at Stone House Museum in Belchertown, MA
“Gold Rush Stories” highlight some of the fascinating lives of the people of the Pioneer Valley in Massachusetts who traveled to California during the Gold Rush. The stories are posted by the Pioneer Valley History Network (PVHN). PVHN has undertaken this project in the hopes that it will bring many historical groups together to demonstrate the power of collaboration and the benefits of working together.
