Me too. I a native No CA resident of 61 yrs. I've drove by this mansion but had no idea of it's history. This was interesting.

Jeff you should be on main stream TV as a narrator on documentaries you're really good and informative

The marsh mansion once had a beautiful marble staircase-somehow it was stolen. I heard John marsh once overcharged a woman an excessive amount for his doctors fees,So the woman overcharged him for the washing of his laundry and his shirts

Good morning Sarah and Jeff. WOW! Another great video with so much important information. I lived in Richmond CA for 20 years. My wife and sisters used to go to Brentwood every summer to purchase fruit and vegetables to Can. I used to go through Brentwood to get to the Delta for Catfishing. We had friends that lived in Pinole, Crockett and Orinda. My late mother-in-law had a cousin that lived in Martinez. All of the above said because all the time that we were in that area, this is the very first time I've heard this story about Dr. Marsh. Fascinating, I lived in an area that was ripe/rich in history and never knew it. Thanks again Jeff and Sarah. You two make my day with every upload about the History of our area.

Thanks! Yeah, it's crazy how history is forgotten and neglected to be told to future generations. Marsh may have been a mean scoundrel but he was interesting and played a very significant role in the settlement and statehood of California! We appreciate your enjoyment of this history as we presented it!

@@jbenziggy I agree with what you said. It's been too many years since I sat in my California History class. I don't remember hearing about Dr. Marsh but, like I said, too many years have passed. I appreciate your and Sarah's hard work. From Ceres, CA. Stan

Thank you for all the time and effort you put into your videos. That mansion must have really been something in its grander years. I know you travel around California alot. I don't know if you have been in Dutch Flat ,California, but there is a old Hotel there it was built back in the 1800 you might be interested in. Dutch Flat is a small , old Gold Mining town up Highway 80 past Gold Run about Four miles. I grew up

I don't understand why the people wouldn't let you film their! It's a great way to keep the place in the public eye and maybe they would get the money to fix it up! Great job with the storyline and the history of it!!! Thank you...

Just go to the Historical Society in Knightsen and ask for the key, they have access or know someone who does.

Yes, BIDWELL'S!! It's amazing how Much land they all had back then....and native people were pushed aside. I lived in Klamath and got to know many of the natives of the area. Later we lived in Requa, my uncle was born there in 1900 and his family was one of the first to settle there, the Fehely family. His wife, my aunt Elizabeth, also taught Reagan in a one room school house. They passed in the late 60s. Thanks for the continuing history lesson. 😁👍👍🦃
