In 1846, a wagon train of nearly 90 people headed from the midwest to California took a newly advertised cutoff that doomed them to a tragic fate. In this first part, we explore the role of two Ohioans in this event: The man who promoted that ill-fated shortcut, and a traveler murdered along the way. www.ohiomysteries.comfeedback@ohiomysteries.com www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Music: Audionautix by The Great Unknown, and The Great Phospher by Daniel Birch
