Where history is preserved! Taken from the California Historical marker: Kernville called Whiskey Flat until 1864, was founded in 1860 when Adam Hamilton a whiskey dealer moved shop here from for more temperature Quartzburg, founded earlier that year. Both camps resulted by the discovery of “The Big Blue Ledge” by Lovely Rogers while tracking a stray mule from the earlier camp of Keyesville. |

This is a excellent museum. Some of the best artifacts and some wonderful friendly volunteers. If you venture this way, please stop here! |
Mothers Day Adventure:) We visited here on Mothers Day and many of the other local communities, Onxy, Cottage Grove Cemetery, Lake Isabella, Bodfish (Silver City Ghost Town), and Kernville. Of course my oldest was like, why Mom why?..boo hoo! He got over it once we arrived at some destinations. He enjoyed the cemetery and the museum. He is going thru the typical teenage stuff, so I am giving him some chances before I adopt him out....hee hee! It was a wonderful day with great weather. Still there is so much more to see just in this area. It is on my list:) | | |

Interesting page on a place where history seems to come alive. Loved the stagecoach, so quaint. We have lots of such log cabins here and many are lived in.:) Can you really buy the Kernville Chamber of Commerce? | hopang Tue Jul 21, 2009 11:18 UTC
A lovely Kernville page, it must be said. The stagecoach certainly looks amazing and the Kern Valley Museum sounds wonderful to visit and explore! ~ho & pang | kyoub Fri Jun 19, 2009 12:45 UTC
What a great way for you to celebrate Mother's Day. I am certain you enjoyed looking around Kernville. | lynnehamman Tue Jun 9, 2009 11:41 UTC
Another great wild west page, Dee. The name of that log-cabin (Insallah) is unusual- Its Muslim. And the favourite dish in restuarant tip is UNUSUAL LOL! Nice pictures |
