Hudson's Bay Company post at Yerba Buena

Dont' have the details handy, but I do know that Yerba Buena was a post of the HBC's Columbia Department, hq'd at Fort Vancouver on the Columbia River; I'm not sure if this was at the town, or maybe on Yerba Buena Island; if it was at the town then Category:Hudson's Bay Company forts is applicable (although that cat name shoudl maybe say "forts and posts" in its title).

It was an office on Montgomery Street, one of the first few buildings built after the pueblo was chartered by the Mexican government, and in no way a fort. I think the book "Imperial San Francisco" talks about it briefly. 66.92.14.198 ( talk) 06:21, 18 May 2008 (UTC) reply

Removed text

Removed "began to attract American settlers" (in 1835). There were very few Americans anywhere in Mexican California before the Mexican-American War, as it was illegal for them to be there without specific permission from the governor. WCCasey ( talk) 23:55, 30 January 2014 (UTC) reply

Bolton citation

I tried to tidy the citation to the internet archive of the Bolton authored book. I somewhat succeeded , but do not believe it is in the proper form. I am uncertain how to proceed and welcome any editor who wished to address the poor formatting. Kind reagards, Hu Nhu ( talk) 02:52, 6 April 2022 (UTC) reply
