== Records and Lists of Settlers  ==
Pioneers who used the California Trail were mostly Americans from the Midwest or Mid-South. Most settled in [[California, United States Genealogy|California]]. A few moved on to [[Oregon, United States Genealogy|Oregon]]. A few may have settled along the trail before reaching California.
No complete list of pioneer settlers who traveled the California Trail is known to exist. However, a variety of sources exist which can be used to identify most of them. Some of these sources may reveal their place of origin.
