The Plaques of E Clampus Vitus: by Sublime Grand Noble Humbug Bill Wensrich
Tacitus Ryland Arbuckle
The Plaques of E Clampus Vitus--
Humbug Chapter No. 73
The 15th in a continuing series of articles
prepared by Bill Wensrich.
“If you ain’t plaque’n, then you ain’t
Clampin’.”
This historical plaque is placed on the
grave of Tacitus Ryland Arbuckle. Often E
Clampus Vitus (ECV) Chapters partner in the
cost and erection of historical monuments.
ECV’s Yreka Humbug Chapter and the
Mountain Charlie Chapter out of San Jose
partnered together to place this plaque. The
plaque is not easy to access because the grave
site is on private property near Callahan,
California. Located on a hillside off of East
Side Road near 8020 E. Callahan Road, you
cannot view the plaque without first gaining
permission from the property owner.
Back in the ‘80s when the grave site
was plaqued, Humbug Chapter had access
to an old school bus. They used that vehicle
to transport participating Redshirts (ECV) to
plaque dedications and the Clampsite where the
weekend Doin’s was held.
The news of gold in California lured
young Tacitus Arbuckle west. He did mining
on the Russian River without much success
and also tried his luck in the silver fields of
Virginia City, Nevada. At age 20 he married
Amada Mevina Tinker. Fourteen children later
found the couple in Colusa County, California
where they increased their land holdings from
a quarter-section to over 7,000 acres. Learning
the railroad was coming, Tacitus offered some
of his land for a railroad depot and provided
free nails to anyone who would buy a lot from
him and build a home. As a result, the town of
Arbuckle, California was established in 1875.
Following a major fire that destroyed most
of the buildings he owned, Tacitus fell into
financial ruin. He packed up what he could
and moved to a ranch just above Callahan in
Siskiyou County’s Scott Valley. Buried on
a hillside above the old ranch his gravesite
provides a glimpse of the old Oregon Trail, a
route he traveled as he pioneered west.
