Yes I knew Virginia City was in NV. My "seeing it from the riverboat" comment was an attempt at being humorous. In your OP I assumed "early life" meant something entirely different; my apologies. I agree, after his short stint in the Confederacy he ended up in Virginia City after heading west in 1862 at the age of 27, & writing "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" some 3 yrs later at age 30.

I see where our miscommunication is. I view everyone below 40 years old as "kids."

I view "early life" to be when you still live with your parents...in some cases today I guess we're talking about the same thing!

Great to see you! As a Bonsai enthusiast, these old specimens are a real treat. The gnarly trunks show the centuries of age, just like the wrinkles on my face.
Grazie amico mio!
