In early 1848 James Marshall discovered gold in California. In late 1848 the President of the United States announced the discovery, encouraging a flood of emigrants, including several Protestant ministers, to leave for California. This is a study of Protestantism in San Francisco during the frontier years, 1848-1856. The early chapters demonstrate that Protestant culture in the eastern United States was at odds with the California society of that time. Later chapters describe the ways that the Protestant community worked to bring order to the volatile social climate in San Francisco. At the outset of the Gold Rush in 1848, San Francisco lacked Protestant ministers, churches, or religious reform organizations. The ministers who ventured to San Francisco worked tirelessly to create a basic infrastructure of religion. Once it was in place, the Protestants created benevolent institutions to continue their religious work outside the structure of the church.

In early 1848 James Marshall discovered gold in California. In late 1848 the President of the United States announced the discovery, encouraging a flood of emigrants, including several Protestant ministers, to leave for California. This is a study of Protestantism in San Francisco during the frontier years, 1848-1856. The early chapters demonstrate that Protestant culture in the eastern United States was at odds with the California society of that time. Later chapters describe the ways that the Protestant community worked to bring order to the volatile social climate in San Francisco. At the outset of the Gold Rush in 1848, San Francisco lacked Protestant ministers, churches, or religious reform organizations. The ministers who ventured to San Francisco worked tirelessly to create a basic infrastructure of religion. Once it was in place, the Protestants created benevolent institutions to continue their religious work outside the structure of the church.

This study argues that serving the predominantly male populace of San Francisco compelled the Protestants to modify their methods and message to be culturally relevant. Protestants developed "godly manhood" as an alternative to other forms of manhood that existed in San Francisco. This "godly manhood" emphasized submission to the will of God and paternalism toward those they viewed as less civilized or in need of aid and also allowed Protestants to challenge or confront their contemporaries who advocated differing visions of manhood.

Finally, this study concludes with the religious community's reaction to San Francisco's famous vigilance activity of 1856. I argue that the members of the Protestant community predominantly sided with the Vigilance Committee for two reasons. First, the members of the Vigilance Committee possessed a vision of manhood similar to that of the Protestants. Second, the Protestants maintained that only in a society in which order reigned could Protestant religion thrive. In defending the activities of the Vigilance Committee, the Protestant religious community used arguments that revolved around both theological and republican ideologies. Consequently, the Protestant reaction to the vigilance activity is an excellent case study of the idea that, for Protestants, social order was imperative for religious growth.
