It’s John Bidwell’s 200th birthday and you are all invited to a free event at Bidwell Mansion on Sunday, August 4th from 4 to 6 p.m. Fun for all!
Come for free Shubert’s ice cream, birthday cake, games, music by the Chico Community Band, and vignettes in the Mansion. Also, burgers for purchase from the Madison Bear Gardens grill.
The birthday boy doesn’t look a day over 50, does he? Happy Birthday, General!
I inherited some hand written papers that connects my ancesters to John Bidwell . They did alot of business together.🎇

You might consider donating those papers to Chico State Library Special Collections. They have a lot of material on Bidwell’s business dealings. What was the family name? I’m curious if I have seen it.
