Gold rushes historical

For a play I'm writing, I'm trying to find slang from the San Francisco gold rush (digger and gang slang), and from Australia's gold rush, both circa 1850s. Also a street map of San Francisco, 1851. Any ideas? Thanks, guys.

My great, great grandfather was an original "'49er" and was noted as such in an article about the family published in the San Bernardino Sun Telegram around 1938.
