from
Wikipedia
In 1811, in order to obtain more of the now commercially valuable otter pelts, a party of Aleut hunters traveled to the coastal island of San Nicolas, near the Alta California-Baja California border.
The locally resident Nicoleño nation sought a payment from the Aleut hunters for the large number of otters being killed in the area.
This, along with European diseases, so impacted the Nicoleños, that by 1853, only one living Nicoleña person remained.
