Concerning information about the Donner party excavations. Anita is
correct about Bruce Hawkins being involved at one point. Bruce was
involved in the excavation of the Donner-Reed site in the area close
to the Salt Flats near the Great Salt Lake in Utah and a book was
produced. The title of the book is "Excavation of the Donner-Reed
Wagons: Historic Archaeology along the Hastings Cutoff". Hope this
helps. The call number in our library is F832 .G7 H38 1990.
Good Luck
Alan
