For over fifty years, the staff of the Museum of the City of San Francisco has
labored--with your help--to compile the first-ever register of those who died in
San Francisco's Great Earthquake and Fire of 1906.
The City of San Francisco's count of the dead was 478.
With your assistance, however, today we can at last honor the lost citizenry,
and recognize all of the victims of the 1906 calamity.
See if your family members are recognized at this time, and watch for the next
updated list.
The search continues.
