The stories of several families begin with Albert, Dorsey, and Alan League, who lost their home of 50+ years to the Eaton Fire that consumed Altadena. We will follow their events from the fire to whether they rebuilt their home or lives elsewhere. Al’s and Dorsey’s years of work on genealogy were lost in the fire. This site will rebuild what was lost and create a digital format for all to see and contribute.
After staying in two hotels, Al and Dorsey booked a two-week stay at the Marriott Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. During their stay, they spent many hours with other evacuees at the Pasadena Convention Center, working with the Red Cross, FEMA, banks, and insurance companies.
