They went by wagon train to California in 1849 with their two children. Their oldest child Louise married John Muir in 1880. Louisiana Erwin Strentzel died around 1897 in Martinez, Calif.
Born to Samuel Augustus and Sallie Rogers (Crisp) Erwin in Tennessee, Louisiana Erwin (1821-1897) moved with her family to Fannin County, Texas, in 1839, settling in Honey Grove three years later.
In 1843, Louisiana married John Theophile Strentzel (1813-1890), who had immigrated to Lamar County, Texas, after obtaining his medical degree in Poland. The couple bore a daughter, Louisa Wanda Louie in 1847 and a son, John Erwin, in 1848. The next year, the family left Texas on a wagon train to California, where they operated an inn and farm in San Diego. In 1852, the Strentzels moved to Alhambra Valley, where John began the Alhambra Grange of local farmers and horticulturalists. In 1880, their daughter Louie married John Muir, a Scottish naturalist and founder of the Sierra Club.
