Tulare County is located in
the Central Valley of the U.S.
state of California, south of Fresno. Sequoia National Park is
located in the county, as are part of Kings Canyon National Park,
in its northeast corner (shared with Fresno County), and part of
Mount Whitney, on its
eastern border (shared with Inyo County). As of the
2010 census, the population was 442,179, up from 368,021 at the 2000 census.
Its county seat
is Visalia. The county is named for Tulare Lake, once the largest freshwater lake west of the Great Lakes. Drained for
agricultural development, the site is now in Kings County, which was
created in 1893 from the western portion of the formerly larger Tulare
County. Americans formed Tulare County
from parts of Mariposa County in 1852.
Parts of the county's territory were given to Fresno County in 1856, to Kern County and to Inyo County in 1866 and to Kings County in 1893. The following counties lie adjacent to
Tulare: Fresno County – north; Inyo County – east; Kern County – south; and Kings County – west. |

It
was in Tulare County where the various branches of our maternal family line
finally settled after almost 200 years of migration from the east coast of
the American Continent. Our
Rhodes ancestors William C. and Sarah (Douglass) Rhodes were the first to
make their home here. By 1860 they were living near the present site of Farmersville. William purchased 40 acres of land in
Tulare county on June 25, 1860 and another 40 acres on August 11th of that
year. Although William listed his
occupation as a carpenter in the 1860 census it is known that he was also
engaged in farming. He later continued
to work as a stockman raising cattle and sheep. In August of 1865 William and his son William Robert Rhodes
were attacked and severely injured by a grizzly bear while herding sheep in
the Yokoli Valley located about 30 miles north of Porterville. Soon after the Civil War Albea Scruggs left Virginia and eventually settled in Tulare County California.
There he married Julia Rhodes Turner in 1875.
Albea fathered a total of nine children (7
boys and 2 girls). The next year,
1876, he purchased his ranch located about 6 1/2 miles west of Porterville,
California, from a railroad company and began to make
improvements; while at the same time followed grain farming as well as the
raising of stock.
William B. Pinnell and his family moved on to California and settled
in Tule River Township in Tulare County sometime between 1892 and 1895. It is most probable that his nephews Guy
Moreland and his brother John Earl left Oklahoma and moved on to that part of
California sometime between 1907 and 1909.
John Earl aged 20 years old is found in the Tulare County, California
census of 1910. By 1920 Mary
Etta (Pinnell) Moreland, mother of the aforementioned Guy and John Earl, and
son Jeremiah Floyd Moreland were living in California near her brother
William B. Pinnell and his family who were living in the Tule River Township
area of Tulare County. John Earl is
known to have been residing in Tulare County as early as 1917 as he was then
living a home he had purchased at 442 S. G Street in Porterville. |

County boundary changes
|
|||||||||||||
Conducting genealogical research in the United States requires an
understanding of county boundaries. As
the population grew more counties were created to meet the public’s need for
localized governments. This phenomena was common in all states during the 17th, 18th and 19th
centuries. As such you must be sure
that you are not looking for records in the wrong county or state. The web-site for the Atlas of Historical County Boundary Project provides interactive maps for all states. This Atlas is meant to be a resource for people seeking records of past events, and people trying to analyze, interpret and display county-based historical data like Land Records, Probate Records, Court Records, Tax Records, and Vital Records that document birth, death, and marriage. Listed below are the boundary changes for this county, the dates they occurred, as well as the government statute that decreed the change. To see actual changes in a mapping format follow this LINK to the Atlas of Historical County Boundary Project . |

Our “Gen-Tool Kit” has been primarily designed for those researchers who may be traveling to this location to perform on-site studies of their family history, or to just visit some of the interesting historical sites located in the area. It can be very satisfying to mix research with sightseeing at historical and scenic spots. Such activity not only gives you an understanding of the land but a needed break from intense research sessions. When visiting an ancestral county for genealogical research we’ve found that the three most important places to visit are the county courthouse; the county library; and the county historical and/or genealogical societies. It is also good to plan ahead by contacting any site you intend visiting in order to ascertain where it is and when it will be open. This is especially true with regard to historical and genealogical societies. We hope that the following information will provide you with a better idea of what resources are available, within this county, to the family historian. |
