It was harsh and cruel. Many miners hardly even found gold. There was starvation and diseases spread quickly as there was hardly and medicine that time. Many people got killed because there was no water. People lived in tents with their families and they usually had rips in the tent. A few of the miners names were Edward Hargraves, Patrick Taylor, james. W Marshall and James .etc
