===Removal of remaining Maidu=== After a decade of [[genocide]] and [[Population transfer|forcible removals]], in 1859 the last of the Kon Kow peoples were forcibly removed by [[Tehama County, California|Tehama County]] ranchers as part of a larger four county 'roundup'.<ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite web |url=http://yankeehillhistory.com/11%20Oct%20news.pdf |title=Archived copy |access-date=2013-12-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131214231841/http://yankeehillhistory.com/11%20Oct%20news.pdf |archive-date=2013-12-14 |url-status=dead }}</ref> They were held at the Mendocino Reservation until the California Reservation Administration at the camp collapsed due to lack of funding due to the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] occurring on the [[East Coast of the United States|East Coast]]. The Kon Kow were then deported to the Nome Cult Farms at the Round Valley reservation. By 1862, the last of the native Concow inhabitants were starving on the cramped [[Round Valley Indian Tribes of the Round Valley Reservation|Round Valley]] with unrelated people relocated from surrounding regions. The damp coastal climate on the reservation contrasts with the dry climate of the California "[[Gold Country]]" they are accustomed to. It was the midst of the North [[American Civil War]], and federal funds for California Reservations were no longer arriving.<ref name="ReferenceA" />
