The only thing of note on that side of the property was a lot of hot spring mud holes.<br /><br />If you take a good look at the south side of the property on google maps you can see remnants of an old road which I presumed was the original Jacks Valley road and possibly the pony express route. The old road veers off to the west about a hundred yards south of the house. The well is situated just yards to the west of the old road, before the creek runoff area. I visited the area in June, 2019 and there appeared to be a brush fire so the well should be easy to spot.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04738947239639893790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943724228102202927.post-3436863696506933152019-10-29T21:42:03.097-07:002019-10-29T21:42:03.097-07:00No. Not that we know of.No. Not that we know of.Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07133789257179902461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943724228102202927.post-21201523145277548812019-10-29T14:51:34.756-07:002019-10-29T14:51:34.756-07:00Hello, do you claim descent from one William Vaugh...Hello, do you claim descent from one William Vaughan of Maessllwch?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943724228102202927.post-45645851984681153152019-09-01T09:20:27.966-07:002019-09-01T09:20:27.966-07:00Thank you so much for that information!
I figured...Thank you so much for that information!<br /><br />I figured that the current structure would have been part of the Stewart Indian School ranch. So far, the Washoe Tribe has been unresponsive to my requests to visit that property. Are you aware of anything resembling a possible grave site, perhaps on the first knoll to the east of the house across the current road? <br /><br />The dry well with remnants of buildings would be very interesting. I take it that was South of the house and West of the current road? Could you estimate about how far?<br /><br />I need to do more detailed map analysis, triangulation, measuring, etc. Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07133789257179902461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7943724228102202927.post-84698664461303291632019-09-01T08:53:44.365-07:002019-09-01T08:53:44.365-07:00I actually lived in this house in the early 1970&#...I actually lived in this house in the early 1970's. We remodeled the house and found fire damage to the second floor. There was a date inscribed into the cement flooring on the north entrance to the house. I think it was 1913. I don't know if this was when the house was built or when the porch slab was poured. The old attached wood framed garage contained some old license plates and other memorabilia. I also don't know too much about the house other than the previous tenant. His name was Baber. He was also an employee of the Stewart Indian School and was charged with running the cattle portion of Stewart's vocational department. I explored this property completely as a teenager with no car and loads of time on my hands. To the rear of the property there was about 10 acres that was a museum of ancient farm equipment and automobiles. The cars appeared to be of 20's and 30's vintage. To the south you could actually see remnants of the pony express trail. The trail appeared to veer west of the current Jack's Valley road. One interesting thing I found was a dry well just off the trail with remnants of buildings.
