SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Abstract of Information Available
Based on the information available,
human remains representing, at least,
nine individuals have been reasonably
identified. In 2023 and 2024, the
individuals were located on the
Sacramento City College, Folsom Lake
College, and American River College
campuses, three of four colleges within
the Los Rios Community College District
(LRCCD), during a campus wide audit.
Based on Tribal knowledge and the
acquisition history of the district, the
individuals were very likely removed
from somewhere in California by
Jeremiah B. Lillard, the first president of
Sacramento Junior College, now
Sacramento City College, between 1923
and 1940. The exact location of where
Lillard removed the ancestors is
