The Oregon Trail was dangerous - disease, thirst, hunger, accidents, Indian attacks. Julia was on the trail in 1877 when she was twenty-nine. She traveled from Iowa to California with her ten-year-old and four-year-old sons. Most of her family were already in California by that time.
Julia Stevens Fish Schlesinger Garrison, the intrepid pioneer, crossed this country in a covered wagon after her husband, Eugene Fish, succumbed to injuries sustained during three years as a soldier in Company C, Second Michigan of the Union Army.
Her story may have been different. This story is a compilation of those told by others who also traveled The Oregon Trail
