Edmund C.
Hinde (April 6, 1830 – December 20, 1909) was a gold miner and laborer.
His life was, at times, extremely difficult and filled with various hardships due to his career as a gold prospector in the 1850s.
Throughout most of his adult life Hinde kept detailed diaries on his daily activities.
After his death, his son, Harry Hinde, donated the diaries to the California State Library.
The diaries have provided a wealth of information on a variety of topics, in particular on the California Gold Rush.
