Ezekiel Merritt led the Bear Party from the Sacramento Valley to Sonoma where they arrived at dawn on June 14, 1846. They declared to General Vallejo that they had no leader, and indeed they elected first John Grigsby as their leader in Sonoma. Upon Grigsby's declaration that he wished to return to the Sacramento Valley once again, William Ide was chosen as the civil commander and Henry Ford as the military commander. When John C. Fremont and his men joined the Bear Party in Sonoma, he was declared the head of the commander of the Bear Party on July 3.

The two parties involved in the Bear Flag Revolt were the government of Mexico and a group of settlers in California. The settlers wanted to be independent from Mexico. The effort was short-lived and, eventually, California ended up joining the union of the United States.
