      "George W. Springer" was enumerated in the 1840 U.S. census for South Haven, Van Buren County, Michigan. He was head of a household of 6 individuals, including himself. His household included one male age 30-39 (George, age about 38), on female age 20-29 (Loisanna, age about 28), two females age 5-9 (Louisa, age about 8; and Sarah, age about 6), and one female and one male under age 5 (Phebe, a newborn; and Van Renselaer, age about 1).

      "He and his family came to California in 1852. Along the way, he kept a journal, which has been transcribed by Kevin Engle and Blanche Stroop. The journal is dated from 6 April 1852 to 1 December 1852. The wagon train started in Niles, Berrien County, Michigan. From there, they traveled along the emigrant route to Salt Lake City, then headed south to the Cajon Pass. The last leg of their journey was by steamer from southern California to Sacramento."
