I have recently discovered the beautiful Meadow Lake and it's history. Fascinating! I have not been able to locate the cemetery. Does anyone know it's exact location? After much research about Henry Hartley...I have found that we may be related back to my Great Great Grandfather's time. I would like to find out more about him. If anyone has any information, please let me know. I would appreciate it.

A place called Sierra City. Founded in 1865, by Henry ?the hermit? one half mile from Jackson meadow reservoir in Nevada country, near Truckee California. Sierra city was an old gold rush-mining town, with over 500 buildings and a population from four to five thousand residents from 1865 to 1868. When no extractable ore was found, the city dwindled down to less then 100 people. Nearby there is a small reservoir called meadow lake created just before the town was founded.
