Part of Breckenridge History Manuscript Collection
Part one from the typed manuscript by Agnes (Finding) Miner. Her account of the early history of Breckenridge, titled "Founding and Early History of Breckenridge, Colorado" begins in 1859 with the Georgia Gulch gold rush and continues with the area's mining and railroad history. Agnes also includes the naming of Breckenridge and references to "Colorado, a Summer Trip" by Bayard Taylor and "In the Parks and Mountains of Colorado" by Samuel Bowles. Agnes ends part one of the manuscript with a poem.
Miner, Agnes E. (Finding)
