Interesting. As a Native Californian I have never heard of Sonoma being part of the Bay Area. Rather, I was taught it was in the Wine Country north of the Bay Area. However, looking at a map, both Sonoma & Napa counties do touch San Pablo Bay, which along with the Grizzly, Suisun, and San Francisco Bays make up the four bay area. However, it is very tenuous to connect the Bear Flag Revolt as occurring in the Bay Area. BTW, since I was born in Sacramento in 1949, I could be considered a “Modern Forty-Niner”!

The original flag had a much plumper, less scary bear than the one we fly today. Here’s its designer, Peter Storm, with an early version.

A memorial and statue still stands on the spot today, commemorating the historical moment when the original Bear Flag was flown.

It would be clearer to point out that Spain founded the missions and presidios as part of its colonization. When Mexico became independent, it held those areas. Sonoma was the only mission founded under Mexico. I’ve not seen the Bear Flaggers described as mainly Napa based before, more a mix of men from Sonoma, which is where Vallejo was taken prisoner. John Fremont is credited with encouraging the rebels. Anyhow, curious where the Napa suggestion originated. Thanks, graham
