Description
This image is from Owen C. Coy's 1925 Pictorial History of California. The lithograph depicts Suttersville, a city founded by John A. Sutter in 1846. A description reads, "Among the towns rivalling Sacramento was Suttersville, located about three miles below the mouth of the American River. This town had been established by John A. Sutter early in 1846 on high ground adjoining the Sacramento River. A sloop ran from the embarcadero there to Yerba Buena (San Francisco) and brought supplies for Sutter's Fort, three miles away."
