History

Hartland was named for two of the first pioneer settlers of the area, William Michael Hart, and his wife, Sarah Matilda Land. Hart and Land traveled by covered wagon to California sometime in the early 1850s. All five of their daughters, and one son were born in the Angel's Camp gold-mining area, where the Harts operated a small school for the Angel's camp miners' children. The 1870s saw the family living down south in the Tulare Co. towns of Venice, Kaweah & Mineral King, Orosi, Squaw Valley, and finally Eshom Valley in the 1880s.
