In 1848 gold was found in Columa California at the sawmill of John Sutter and this resulted in the gold rush. California had all ready become a territory called the Bear Flag Republic when John C Fremont took the Mexican governor hostage in Monterey. He was taken to Sutters Fort in Sacramento. So many people came into California seeking gold that by 1850 California became a state September 9, 1850.
