Charbonneau then got caught up in the California Gold Rush sweeping the state, and joined thousands of other "49ers" in Placer County. Still chasing the elusive dream of riches, he died (apparently of bronchitis) in Danner, Oregon at the age of 61, while en route from California to the new gold fields discovered around Virginia City in Montana. There is a burial site for Charbonneau near Jordan Valley, Oregon, generally believed to be the correct one. Another site and memorial stands in Fort Washakie, Wyoming, but whether the body interred there could be his is disputed. The California Gold Rush (1848â1855) began in January 1848, when gold was discovered at Sutters Mill. ...
