CJ 1857 in Pitt River area

[Robert Kentta]

Maybe Chinook Wawa had naturally extended that far by 1857, but it's about
as likely that a Pit River area woman had been taken as a slave to the north
and somehow returned....

CJ was not well understood in 1853 in the Rogue Valley, but in common use by
the end of the Rogue River Wars (1856)
