The surrounding land at the time was used for farming and in 1861 a gold discovery was hit by the son in law of Charles P. Allen. From that time till the 20th century two major booms occurred and by 1930 when the third and final prospect came about the gold had all but gone. Since then it’s been home to many other industries.
