Helen Hunt Jackson "As soon as I began, it seemed impossible to write fast enough I wrote faster than I would write a letter two thousand to three thousand words in a morning, and I cannot help it." Helen Hunt Jackson describing her writing of "Ramona" Helen Hunt Jackson (1830-1885), activist for Native American rights and author of Southern California’s most enduring historical romance novel Ramona, was born and reared in Amherst, Massachusetts, a schoolmate and friend of the woman who would become Amherst’s most celebrated resident, poet Emily Dickinson. (Born Helen Maria Fiske, Jackson would be twice married: first to U.S. Army Capt. Edward B. Hunt who died in a military accident, then to William S. Jackson, a wealthy banker and railroad executive.) Jackson grew up in a literary environment, and using a pseudonym (H.H.H), was herself a noted poet and writer of children’s stories, novels and essays before turning her considerable intellect and energy to investigating and publicizing the mistreatment of Native Americans, especially the Mission Indians of Southern California. Her interest in the subject began in Boston in 1879 at a lecture by Chief Standing Bear who described the forcible removal of the Ponca Indians from their Nebraska reservation. Jackson was incensed by what she heard and began to circulate petitions, raised money, and wrote letters to the New York Times on the Poncas’ behalf. As one observer noted, she became a "holy terror." (Friends and critics have variously described her as "passionate," "volatile," "defiant" and "uncompromising." Historian Antoinette May said she "lived a life that few women of her day had the courage to live.") Jackson also began work on a book condemning the government’s Indian policy and its record of broken treaties. When

Needs and Opportunities in Los Angeles Biography Part One: The 18th and 19th Centuries By Abraham Hoffman, Ph.D. Historical Society of Southern California I. The 18th and 19th Centuries Los Angeles in 1781, as civilian settlements. Although his presence in Los Angeles was negligible, his influence was of paramount importance, since he was responsible for the creation of Los Angeles. Edward A. Beilharz has traced Neve's career in Felipe de Neve, First Governor of California (1971). This is not to say that leading Californios have been completely neglected. For examples, see Wallace E. Smith, This Land was Ours: The Del Valles and Camulos (1978); Terry E. Stephenson, Don Bernardo Yorba (1963), and Judson Grenier, California Legacy: The James Alexander Watson-Maria Dolores Dominguez de Watson Family (1987). The Lugo family stands in a class by itself, mainly because it was involved in a sensational murder case in the early 1850s. Joseph Lancaster Brent, The Lugo Case: A Personal Experience (1926) is an eyewitness memoir published late in the author's life. W.W. Robinson, People versus Lugo: The Story of a Famous Los Angeles Murder Case and Its Amazing Aftermath (1962) is the most complete account of the incident. The Lugo family is profiled in Roy E. Whitehead, Lugo: A Chronicle of Early California (1978), and there is an unpublished memoir written by Jose del Carmen Lugo in 1877, Vida de un Ranchero, translated by Helen P. Beattie in 1950 at the A.K. Smiley Public Library in Redlands.
