These Affidavits were stored in a box in the Local History Room at the Beal 
Memorial Library in Bakersfield, CA.  They were loosely filed alphabetically and 
some had consent notes written by parents, guardians, etc. attached to them.  A 
few consent notes were written on the back of old envelopes and one on a piece 
of brown paper bag.  The following records concern the family of Jesus Miranda 
and his Native American wife Petra, who lived in the Kern River Valley.  My 
notes are in brackets.
