1871 In 1919 Edward W. Gifford was able to create a "remarkable" census of the village which the
Eastern Pomo called
Sikom, through the memory of Jim Pumpkin, who was able to recall "the names and kin relations of every house ... Sikom was made up of 20 dwellings, all but two of which were occupied by two, and sometimes four, families grouped around 48 fires. These 20 houses held a total of 235 individuals." ==Government==
