  • Abstract
    GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE was born in 1846 — exactly 100 years ago. At that time, the United States west of the Mississippi was largely Indian territory; or Oregon country disputed between the United States and Great Britain; or what is now California, but was then a part of Mexico — a nation with which the United States was about to engage in war over the annexation of Texas. James Polk was in the White House; and emigrations were under way to California and Oregon, with the Mormons moving West.
