Hi,

This is part of Trinity Co., CA taken from the 1885 county directory. Sorry
but I have no additional information on these. Only thing is says for sure
is if your Ancestor was here in 1885. If there is no occupation it is
because none was listed.

northeastern part of the county, on the Trinity River. It is the second
place of importance in the county, and the only point having telegraphic
communication with the outside. It is forty-four miles distant from
Shasta, and is on the main road leading to Yreka and Oregon, over which the
stages of the California and Oregon Stage Line pass daily. The prevailing
interest, as elsewhere in the county, are mining, although several good
sections of farming land are found in the neighborhood, mostly all
cultivated and realizing handsome returns to their owners from the good
prices received for their product. The town has the usual business
establishments, including a general merchandise store, hardware store,
blacksmith shop, saw mill and hotel. the distance to the county seat is
thirty-two miles, and the population of the town proper is about one hundred.
