  10. At age 15 she left Missouri for California, taking a boat in
    New York. Her boat was detained for three days as the nation
    mourned the assassination of President Lincoln. The party
    crossed the Isthmus of Panama on a train and then took a boat
    to San Francisco; the trip lasted 30 days. The "family" (she
    had no immediate family, as both parents died in Missouri when
    she was a child -- see Cit. 14 and 37) first settled in
    Petaluma in Sonoma County, then migrated to Carpinteria in
    Ventura County.
