This is the true story of the Clevenger family from Arizona Territory, and their unfortunate events as they trekked north to Washington Territory. Once the old, cantankerous Sam Clevenger and his wife, Charlotte, hired Frank Willson and John Johnson to help with the move, their fate took a dark turn. These true events were documented by journalists through the 1887 trial and well into the 1900s, and stories have been told of Sam's unfound treasure for nearly 130 years. But, this is the first detailed, documented, and vetted account of their bizarre and fascinating tale. About the Author I was born 150 years too late to realize my passions. I must say that I am infatuated with the 1800's, particularly the West and the allures that drew so many to drastic measures of unforeseen survival challenges, riches and true freedom. I grew up in Southern Utah, 20 miles from town and surrounded by history and its treasures, found and unfound. From Anasazi ruins flush with artifacts, to unfound Spanish bullion and cowboy era Gold coins still buried, this was my perfect childhood that never seems to fade. My lifetime of digging in the red hills of Southern Utah, Northern Arizona and the rich dirt of Nevada has now evolved from simply under my fingernails to writing for the world to realize what intrigues this old soul of mine.
