airl he was looked upon as a living evidence of the reality of the gold discovery. So little was known of the value of this dust, that he cold obtain bnt twelve dollars an ounce. His sons. David and John, remained here, and for some time were prominent men of Marysville. Early in 1549, the miners began to gather rapidly at this point, and the bar soon became a populous and thriving town. It was very rich, and many a hard working miner returned from here to his enstern home with a golden belt. In 1852, there were six stores, three hotels, two blacksmith shops, barber shop, post-office, and a number of saloons. That year six hundred votes were polled, which was at least three- fourths of the population. The construction of a bridge was com- menced in 1851, but it was swept away by high water before it was completed. A low water bridge was built in 1853. In 1859, Matt Woods constructed a tubular bridge across the stream. This broke down the same year. About a year later, Wools & Vineyard built a suspension bridge here, which was carried away by the flood in the spring of 1862. A stage was on the bridge at the time, and barely succeeded in getting clear before it fell. The toll receiver was killed by ono of the falling cables. Parks Bar began to decline in 1854-55, and each successive year saw it becoming more and more descrted. The muddy waters of the Yuba now flow over the old site of this once flourishing town, and but little is left to bear evidence of its former prosperity. One house and a skiff ferry are all that can be found there now.
SICARD BAR.
This was a small bar on the river just ahove Parks Bar. Work was commenced here in the spring of 1849. It derived its name from Theodore Sicard who kept a store here. The bar was really an exten- sion of the Parks Bar, being but a short distance above it. It was worked out in a short time, and nothing is left to mark the spot.
SICARD FLAT.
This is a flat just back of Parks Bar and Sicard Bar. It derived its name also from Theodore Sicard, who opened the mines. Work was commenced here in 1850, in the ravine, where rich surface diggings were found. When the gravel mines were discovered Sicard Flat became a great hydraulic mining point, and is being worked by that process at the present time. It had a few stores, etc., and John Rose had a corral here where he slaughtered cattle to supply his markets in the mines. About fifty acres of ground have heen washed away. The South Feather River Mining Company have heen working this place since 1871. They have about fifty miles of diteh running to the flat from Feather river, two miles of flume, three thousand feet of pipe, and keep two nozzles working night and day. The town
now has eight dwellings and one blacksmith shop, but ne store. The population is about fifty.
BARTON'S BAR.
About two miles from Parks Bar, up the windings of the stream, at the head of a large bend, is another of the old mining camps, Bar- ton's Bar. This place was first settled njion in 1850 by P. Y. Har- ris, who took up the present Haworth Ranch. The bar was quite rich, though small, and for five or six years was a flourishing camp. Robert and George Barton had the only store there in 1850, aml the bar was named after them. There were then over one hundred miners. Several saloons, stores, and hotels existod there later, and three hundred miners worked hero during the scason of its prosperity. W. M. Pearls, of Smartsville, says that Ferguson Brothers, who hnd a store here in 1850, sold out at auction, and that he saw in the store a sugar harrel full of gold retorts on the day of the sale. The For- gusons returned East with ninety thousand dollars. This place met the fate common to all the river camps, and was abandoned when it ceased to pay. The only resident there now is Thomas Haworth, who owns a fine ranch on the river.
MALAY CAMP.
Opposite Landers Bar, near the mouth of Deer creek, a number of Malays were working in the early days, and the bar became known as Malay Camp.
UNION BAR.
On the Yuba, near the mouth of Union creck, was a small mining place known as Union Bar. It was not very large, aml becune soon exhausted.
OREGON HOUSE.
This house, situated twenty-four miles from Marysville, on the road to Camptonville, is one of the landmarks of Yuba county. It was first settleil in 1850 by Larry Young, who built a log cabin in the valley, at the head of which the present house stands. The Oregon House was built in 1852, and in January, 1853, on the anniversary of the battle of New Orleans, a grand party was given. This was the first party in the hills, and two hundred and fifty tickets were sold. There were eighteen ladics present, which was a good showing for those days. There was a military company formed during the war, and the Oregon House was the rallying point. They were called the Yuba Mountaineers. The officers of the company in 1863, were :--- John Brown, Captain; H. Camper, First Lientenant; J. A. Clay, See- ond Lieutenant; J. A. Barnhart, Third Lieutenant; W. Meon, First Sergeant. There has been a postoffice at Oregon House over twenty. five years.

CLARK VALLEY RANCIL.
This ranch, situated about two miles above the Oregon House, was taken up by Clark & Clark, in 1850. It was kept as a hotel for sinne time, and is now owned by John Eich, who purchased it in 1855.
FRENCHTOWN.
This once flourishing little town lies on Dry creek, one-half mile , south of the New York Township line. Mining was first done in this vicinity in 1852 on Riel Gulch. The first pormanent settlement on the site of the town was made in 1854 by Paul Vavasseur. Ile built a hotel, and kept store and bar, The town in a few years becmine quite n eentor, about five hundred men making this their bead- quarters. There wore four stores, three saloons, three hotels, two black- smith shops, one bakery, and one barber shop. Sineo 1870 the placo has been virtually abandoned. There are now several dwelling-houses in the town, and a hotel and har kopt by Paul Vavasseur. Some good quartz lodges have been discovered at the head of Rich Guleh. Some mining in still being dono there, In 1861, Vavasseur huilt a small arrastra, which still stands there. In 1878, he built a larger one, which is now in use. Vavasseur makes considerable wine every year. The town derived its mume from the large number of French people who settled thero.
MC QKEEN SAW-MILL.
Judgo MeQueon took up a ranch in 1852, on Dry creek, five miles above its mouth. He built a snw-mill at a cost of four thousand dollars. The timber was not good, and the mill, after doing a little work, was abandoned in 1856.
GARDEN RANCH,
Craft, Smelger & Williams built a hotel about 1852, one-half mile above the Oregon House. They soll it to Lonis Long in 1855, who closed it as n hotel. It now belongs to James Gore.
STANFIELD HOUSE.
This hotel is situated on the road from Marysville to Camptonville, one-half mile east of the east line of Long Bar Township. A man hy the name of Stanfield settled here in 1852, and built a hotel. In 1858, it came into tho hands of Charles Smith, the present pro- prietor.
DRY CREEK MILL.
Williams & Fagan built a saw-mill on Dry creek, about two miles north of the Oregon House, in 1854. It was destroyed by fire in 1861, and after being rebuilt was again partially destroyed, in 1862, when it was abandoned. Williams & Fagan also huilt a flour-mill, in 1856, between the saw-mill and Frenchtown. They ran it two years,
and then abandoned it, because the wheat being smutty these twoben. sons, they thought good wheat could not be raised here.
VIRGINIA RANCII.
On Dry creek, one mile below the crossing of the Camptonville road, J. A. Paxton settled in 1850, and Imilt a hotel and kept a trading- post. In 1859, the property came into the possession of Peter Rice. who ceased to keep hotel, and put fifty thousand dollars in improve- ments on the ranch. Fruit was set ont as early as 1853, aml now there are six thousand fruit trees and fifty thousand grape vines. L. B. Clark has owned the ranch since 1870, and makes a great deal of wine every year,
BELL VALLEY,
This little valley lies on the line between Parks Bar and Foster Bar Townsbip, where the Rice's Crossing road passes. It was named after Tom Bell, the noted highwayman, who useil the valley as a retreat for stock and other booty. It was settled in 1854 hy Arthur & Howard, at which time a trail led through the valley to Rice's Crossing. The road was made in 1859, and that year James Wood purchased the place aml converted the house into a hotel. The valley now belongs to Peter Yore.
ENTERPRISE MILL.
This mill was built hy Captain Willey, about 1855. It stood on Dry ereck, ahout two miles northwest of the Oregon House. It was abandoned ahont 18G0, when the timber was used up.
MARTIN RANCH.
This place, on the stage road, about one mile east of Dry creek, was settled hy N. Martin in 1855. He huilt a hotel which was kept as a public house until 1872. It is now the property of P. Flannelley.
GOLDEN BALL.
The Golden Ball was built in 1849-50, on the pack-mule trail from Marysville to Downieville. All travel and transportation of goods for the mountains went over these improvised roads. The Golden Ball is situated one mile from the Oregon House and three miles from Frenchtown. It is owned at present by Mr. Trevitick as a ranch. The present owner has put up sowie fine and expensive build- ings, and is noted for maisiug fine horses.
WILLOW GLEN HOUSE.
The Willow Glen House was built in 1861, at the time the Knox road from Marysville to Laporte was made. It is still a hotel.
CALIFORNIA HOUSE,
The California House is distant from Marysville about twenty- eight miles. It was built in 1849-50, on the pack-trail from Marys-
valle to Downeville. This trail was, however, soon converted into a wagon road. It was once the great artery of travel from the valley to the mountains, and millions of treasure have been transported over it. At the present time it is only used for local travel. The property is owned at present by Mr. Robbins, Justice of the Peace, and is no longer kopt as a hotel.
There are two schools in this vicinity ; uno situatedl nt the Keystone Hills. This school was established at a very early time by subscrip. tion of the inhabitants. It is distant nhe and one-hilf miles from Frenchtown. At the present time it is very well attended, the man. ber of pupils bring about fifty. The second school was established in 1852, at the Oregon House. The location has often been changed. but at present the honso stam's near the original site. This school is attended by over forty pupils, It is two miles from Frenchtown. There are more schonls in the vicinity, distnut from thern to four miles from Frenchtown. The people of this neighborhood have always manifested a highly commendable spirit in regard to the sup- port of schools, Tho rising generation has no excuse for roumining in ignorance, These schools are generally supplied with excellent teachers.

The Court of Sessions laid out the county in fifteen townships, August 24, 1850, including the territory now belonging to this town- ship in the town of Long Bar. The Court again divided the county into ten townships, August 7, 1851, and this time placed the western portion of this township in Dry Creek Township and the castern por- tion in Foster Bar. October 7, 1852, the county was again ent up into eleven divisions aml this territory was given to Long Bar west of a line dne north from the Oregon House and east of that liue to Key- stone township. October 10, 1856, the Board of Supervisors remod. eled the townships, creating New York Township with nearly the same area as at present, except that there was a little difference in the line between this and Foster Bar Township. The present boundaries are :- Beginning at the northwest corner of section thirty, township' eighteen N., R. G east ; thence east six miles and eleven chains to the

NATCHEZ.
One of the first, mining poiuts iu the township was this little town ou Lfm Natchez brauch of Houent ercok. In 1850, Major Brown cumo alam tu this point, bringing some stock and blankets with him, with which he gained the good-will of the Indians. Hu worked for sumo time und tho ludiaus say he " got henp gold." The diggings were very rieb, und the Major guarded them jeulously. Ons day a miner from boluw followed up the stream, being attracted by the dirty water, until he cams njom Brown ut work. " How far does your claim oxtanul ?" asked the new comer. The Major took up his rifle und, pointing it up tho stremm, calmly remarked " up this way as far as she will enrry n bullet," und, pointing down stream, " dowu this way about the suino distatico." The stranger although he thought it was a pretty largo clain, concluded not to express his opinion. He told Brown that he was without anything and wanted to go to work. Brown pointoil him to a spot whore he wurde fifty dollars per day for awhile, but soon abandoned it to go elsowhero. Tho placo whero Brown werked was unmod Brown's ravino. In 1851, there wero a gront many minors on the erook aml the little town of Natchez sprang up. A mun mmned Jackson built a storo here that year. B. D. Rodumu enmo in 1852 and opened a storo, in which ho kept no bar, au oxcoodingly raro occurrence in thoso days. There were also a hotel, blacksmith shop, and saloons. A great deal of gambling aud fighting was done, and near tho place is a graveyard containing twenty-five wounds, uono of the occupants of which died a natural death. The mining ravines there, Brown's, Steward's, Grab, Slug, Jackass, Jennie, Hovoy, and Dieksburg, were all very rich and paid well until worked ont. B. D. Rodman moved his store to the hill abovo the remains of the old town in 1866, where ho still keeps it. Tho town of Natchez saw the light of its prosperity in 1852-3. There was a revival in 1858-60, but after that it soon b. came entirely deserted.
DICKSBURG QUARTZ MILL.
A man called " Dick" settled at this point on Natchez Honcut ah mit. 1850. A ravine there was called Dicksburg ravine. after this
In 1851, Sir Henry Huntley built a quartz mill there at an expense of five thousand dollars. This mill was called Dicksburg Quartz Mill. Sir Henry was acting as agent for an English company, the Anglo American Gold and Silver Company. He lost about forty thousand dollars in this vicinity, and abandoned the mill in 1852, which has since gone to decay. B. D. Rodinan is the present owner of the property.
NEW YORK HOUSE.
William Leedom, William Ramsdell, Philip Flannigan, and Daniel McClusker built this hotel on the Rice road, late in 1850. The place from 1860 was mined by Chamberlain & Kraser, and called Union Flat. James Albert bought it in 1878.
NEW YORK RANCH OR FLAT.
The same men who built the New York House also took up this rauch and a small meadow near Sharon valley. Mining was com- menced here about 1850. There was a race-track here in 1855-6, and a great many races were run and a great deal of money changed hands on bets. In 1852-3-4, religious services were held at irregular intervals hy Rev. Mr. Derrick, a Methodist. In 1857, the Nevada Company commenced work here, and are still pursuing it. Kyle & Cleveland had cattle on the Honcut in 1850-51, with which they sup- plied this and other mining camps with ment.
OHIO AND GARDEN RANCH FLATS.
These two mining flats adjoin each other, and were worked as early as 1850. The first house in the vicinity of Ohio Flat was a leg ene, built by Benjamin Johnston and Joseph Haieser in 1851. This was called Ohie Ranch. Dr. Conduit and Mr. Haney settled on Garden Ranch Flat in 1850 and commenced mining. A. F. Roberts, W. B. Kendall and others did prospecting and mining through the northeastern portion of the township in 1850-51. Roberts, Fry & Co. located a seven hundred foot claim in 1854, and in 1856 did drifting, and found the place to be rich. In 1867, Roberts & Kendall bought the claim they are now working. In 1878, a flume was completed from the Nevada Company's claim, on New York Flat, to this place, and since then Roberts & Kendall have been working night and day. They empdoy fourteen men. Roberts also owns the Deadwood mine, on Deadwood ravine, located by Cartwright Brothers and Evans Brothers in 1855. Roberts & Co. bought them out in 1857, and have worked the mine occasionally ever since. In 1873, they took out a piece of gold worth two thousand two hundred and thirty-five dollars. An incorporated company was formed in 1875, and a ten- stamp mill erected. Roberts now owns the claim. A store and boarding-house was erected by H. M. Ekly and others, in 1854.
They ceased to keep the store in 1857, and in 1864, gave up the boarding-house also. [ Tho population of the two Flats is about tifty.
MOUNT HOPE.
The diggings at this point were what were called winter diggings, and were worked from 1850 to 1856. There was a population of forty. A quartz ledge was found in 1858, and a five-stamp mill was erected. It shut down in 1867, but afterwards came inte the posses- sion of the Nevada Company, who are now working it. Mt. Hope House, formerly the Brother Jonathan, was built in 1853, by 1. E. Paun and William Smith. Pann sokl out to another man, who, with Smith, opened a storo in connection with the house, in 1853. The place has been kept by Samuel Thurston since 1858.
CRANE'S SHARON VALLEY MILL.
Comstock, Mullen and Doctor Brayton settled at this place in June, 1851. They took up some land with the intention of raising vego- tables. In 1852, they sold to L. T. Crane, William M. Crane and A. Meade, who, in the spring of 1853, completed a saw-mill that had heen commenced there. L. T. Crane and brother soon hecame solo owners of the mill. In 1861, they built a new mill in a better lecality, and moved the machinery into it. They are still operating it, and employ eight men. They saw ont about five hundred thousand feet of lumber annually. There is also a planing machine in connection with the mill. The largest log gotten out was eight and one-half feet iu diameter, and computed to he three hundred years old.
WASHINGTON MILL.
Near where Branch Turnpike crosses Dry creek, a saw-mill was built by a Mr. McFarland, in 1851. In 1853, it was sold to Rice & Rice, and in 1854, to Mr. Harhongh. In 1863, Crozier bought it and ran it one year. It was then abandoned, because the timber had become exhausted.
AMERICAN MILL.
This mill on Dry creek, near Branch Turnpike, was built by Gates & Co., in 1854. It was a water-power mill, and was run until 1859, when it was abandoned by its owner, Mr. Jordan. It was afterwards destroyed hy fire.
COLUMBIA MILL.
This mill was built in 1851, one mile below the American mill, en Dry creek. It was abandoned in 1854.
GNAGGY MILL.
This saw-mill, on Dry creek, a little south of the Washington mill, was built hy Jacob Gnaggy. It was a water-power mill. After changing hands several times, it was washed away in 1869-70, by a freshet, at which time it was the property of Mr. Frizell.

BEAVER RANCH.
This ranch, situated on the road near Doubtful gulch, was settled by Henry Camper and John McGuire, in 1851, at which time it was on the Weeks and Gnaggy trail. In 1854, they sold it to Beaver aud Townsend, as a hay ranch. David Beaver sokl his interest ju 1855, to Townsend, who, in 1860, opened a public houso and called it the Beaver Ranch Hotel. Martin Knox bought it in 1877, but sold it again the next year to Sanmel Amsler, who still keeps hotel there.
SAW-MILL COTTAGE.
'This place on Brauch Turnpike, near the American saw-inill, was built in 1851, by Joseph Payne. It was kept as a public house. George Hedge bought it in 1853, and sold it to the widow Lewis, in 1864. The Contral Turnpike monopolized all the travel in 1863, and the house ceased to bo a hotel.
ROSS RANCHI.
Jacob Gnaggy settled ono-half mile from the Central Turnpiko road, in 1851. Tho Ross Brothors camo thero later with stock, and the paco becamo known as the Ross Ranch. In 1866, it came into the hands ef Jamos Malaley, the present ownor.
MIANSONVILLE.
This onco flourishing town was situated on tho Hansonville branch of the Honcut, twenty-eight miles from Marysvillo. It was first set- tleil in 1851, by James H. Hanson, after whom the town was named. A number of miners commenced to work along the creok in the spring of 1851, and moro soon followed. R. M. Johnson settled with Han- son, and togethor they built a house in which they kept the first store an l hotel. William Denton and Henry Critcher both opened stores in 1851. In 1852, thore wero seven storos, eight hotels and a popula- tion of one thousand people. Every store had a bar. There was a bowling alley alsa. Plenty of gambling was indulged in. William Mackayoll was the first blacksmith in the town. In 1852, religious services were hohl in the bar-rooms and private houses, by Rev. Mr. Morchant. One day he was proaching back of a saloon, the gamblers having ceasod operations in order to licar the sermon. One of them opened a faro game and won about fifty dollars, which he presented to the prencher at the conclusion of the servicos. The minister said he would take it as it had been in bad use long enough. From 1864 to 1876, the Methodists held regular services in the Hansonville school house. They are now held on the Butte county side of the Honent. A Mr. Hill kept a private school in tho town in 1853. The sehool house was built in 1864, at an expense of five hundred dollars. The last store in town was that of James Hanson, and was closed in 1860. A quartz ledge .was found in 1851, and located by Russell, Craig &
Co., and the Hansouville Mining Company. Russell, Craig & Co. built a stamp mill in 1851, which was abandoned two years later. The Hansonville Mining Company also built an eight-stamp water- power mill, at a cost of eighteen thousand dollars. It did not pay to work, as labor waseight dollars per day and the quartz worthonly sixteen dollars per ton. The mill was washed away in the thao of 1852-53. In 1858, a new company erected a twelve-stamp steam-power mill, at a cost of about twenty thousand dollars. It was worked but n short time. In 1861, it was sobl and the machinery taken away. In ISTI, an arrastra was made and used until 1874, when a small mill was built, which was run for two years. In June, 1878, the Yuba Consoli- dated Mining Company put in new machinery and again started the mill. In September, it was destroyed by fire, together with the hoisting works. By January 1, 1879, the tive stamps were again run- ning. Besides these claims a number of pockets have been found that were quite rich. Most of the mining in this vicinity has been with the pan and sluice box. But little mining is being done now. David Beaver built a hotel at the top of the Hansonville grade in 1853. He sold it to Rice, who gave it up in 1864. A hotel was built by a man named Harrison in 1854, one and one-half miles above Hansonville. He sold it to Dunn, who afterwards abandoned it.
BROWNSVILLE.
Tho promising little town of Brownsville lies on the Central Turu- pike, thirty-three miles from Marysville. I. E. Brown, who still lives near by, built a saw-mill here in August, 1851, at a cost of eight thousand dollars. In November, 1852, Martin Knox aud P. E. Weeks bought the mill, and ran it under the firm name of Weeks & Knox. The mill was abandoned about 1857. In addition to the mill, Brown and his partner, John Hoyt, kept hotel iu a log house. When Weeks & Knox bonght them out they named the place Browns- ville, in honor of Mr. Brown. In 1853, a store was started in con- nection with this hotel. In 1855, Weeks & Knox Imilt a large hotel. The first blacksmith came in 1855, a man named Sheets. In 1861, the store was given up. The hotel was burned in 1866, and another built the same year. In 1878, there was quite an impetus given to the town. A large addition was made to the hotel, an edu- cational institution was opened, a hall association formed, a store started and some fifteen thousand dollars expended in improvements. The Knoxdale Institute was founded by Mr. and Mrs. Martin Knox. The school opened September 9, 1878, with Professor E. K. Hill as Principal. There were but five scholars when the school was opened, but this number was increased the second term to seventeen. The young ladies who attend this institute receive the same care and attention from Mrs. Knox that would be bestowed upon them by their
