Interview with Casey Terfertiller about his pioneer roots on the Mission Hill area. His great grandfather is John Bilodeau who came to Santa Cruz in the 1880s. He was a marble worker and created many of the tombstones found around Santa Cruz. Casey expresses his excitement in finding artifacts near the family property that represent the long history of this part of Santa Cruz. The three archeological periods are the Ohlone settlement, the Mission settlement and the Rancho period.
