Return to Index History & History Related Items Bishop history: The area where Bishop is located is known as the Owens Valley, named for Richard Owens, a member of Fremont's 1845 expedition. Cattlemen, driving their stock through the Sierra Nevadas happened through this area and decided it would be a good place to raise their livestock without having to drive them through the mountains. One of the first to do so was Samuel Addison Bishop and his family. They arrived on 22 August 1861 with around 600 head of cattle and 50 horses. Others followed and soon there was a market to sell the meat to the mining camps, such as Aurora. Sheep were also brought in by others. Even though the Bishop family didn't stay here, the area continued to grow and was named Bishop Creek. For a time there was trouble between the white settlers and the local Indians who viewed cattle as wild game. After some of the stock were killed, a small war broke out. Fighting continued until soldiers arrived in 1862. Sporatic skirmishes continued for a couple of more years. Bishop Creek continued to supply beef to many towns in the eastern Sierras. In 1889, the Creek was dropped, creating the name of Bishop for the community. For much more history and some historical photos, please go to this history page for Bishop.
