# The Lost Dutchman: Where the Legend Began

Marshall (attributed) Trimble, n.d.. _True West Magazine (Tom Kollenborn Chronicles series)_.

Dates the legend's making: Julia Thomas and the Petrasch brothers' failed search returned in late September 1892, told Pierpont C. Bicknell, whose January 1895 San Francisco Chronicle article first joined Waltz, the Peraltas and Weaver's Needle and coined "Dutchman's Lost Gold". Notes the Black Queen and Mammoth strikes near Goldfield months later.
