The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗The community was first populated during the California Gold Rush, because multiple would-be Forty-niners stopped after crossing the Carson River.
The town and post office were established on July 24, 1896, in a little shack belonging to Michael Fallon and Eliza Fallon, who operated a ranch at the site. Shortly afterwards, Jim Richards later operated a store near the post office.
