California Indian Agency (California)

History
The California Agency was officially established in 1947 with a statewide jurisdiction, except for reservations along the Colorado River. However, records have been filed under the California Agency name for as early as 1907 (see below). It may be that the records listed apply to the Sacramento Agency. In 1950, the California Agency was replaced by the Sacramento Area Office.

Records
A few administrative records of the California Agency, 1924-1949, are in the Pacific Regional Archives of the National Archives and Records Administration in San Francisco, including Indian family assistance case records, 1924-1948.

Annual Indian Census Rolls were taken at this agency for 1907 thru 1915. These rolls have been microfilmed by the National Archives as part of their Microcopy Number M595, rolls 12-14. Copies of these records are also available at the National Archives, their Regional Archives, and at the Family History Library and its family history centers (their microfilm numbers 573858-573860). These census rolls are also available online at Ancestry.com's subscription web site.
