Amador County Directory for 1879 - 1880 This is the Amador County Directory for 1879-1880. It has been extracted from McKenney's District Directory for the same years. The complete directory included the counties of Sacramento, Amador, El Dorado, Placer and Yolo. This is a copy of the Amador County section ONLY! It listed by town within the county, beginning with Amador City. Submitted by Bill Baccus. AMADOR CITY Has a population of 600 souls, is beautifully situated in a romantic spot on the Jackson and Drytown wagon road, two miles from Sutter Creek, and is very nicely built. It has daily mail telegraphic and telephonic communication. Mining is the pursuit most extensively engaged in. It is the headquarters of the Keystone Consolidated Mining Co, to whose genial and whole-souled superintendent O. C. Hewitt, Esq. we are under obligations, and also the site of the Original Amamdor Mine, J. R. Johns, Superintendent, whose courteous treatment we shall always remember.

The location is very pleasant, the water good, and the chief pursuit is mining. The Aqueduct House, kept by A.C. Ham, a genial and whole-souled gentleman, is the only hotel in the place, where the weary traveler will be treated with the greatest kindness.

There is a good hotel kept by a "right man in the right place,"several stores and a schoolhouse. The population is cosmopolitan in its character, although the American element predominates. It is surrounded by a rich agricultural district, while mining is acticely carried on in close proximity to the place. It is 40 miles east of Sacramento and has daily mail carried by stages. Perhaps if a little life were infused into some of its best citizens, it would soon be "itself again.' It has a population of 200 souls.

It has an excellent school, a weekly newspaper, and its churches are in a prosperous condition. The residents are intelligent and energetic, displaying a commendable pride in their place by constructing their business houses and residences with an eye to convenience and architectural beauty. The yards are rich in the possession of shrubs, plants and trees of rare species, and are consequently an attractive feature of the place. It is the Northern terminus of the Amador branch of the Central Pacific Railroad. It has telegraphic communication and a daily mail. The mines in the vicinity of the town are gold producing, though the chief suit engaged in is farming, fruit and vegetables attaining a remarkable size and a delicious flavor. It is 48 miles from Sacramento, via Galt. The Veranda Hotel is the popular hostelry, where the tourist or commercial traveler will find a cordial reception and meet with good treatment at the hands of it general proprietress, Mrs. M. R. Kingsley, and its clever young clerk Mr. Will Kingsley. The water is pure, clear, and cold, and its sanitary condition is most excellent. The scenery in the immediate vicinity is picturesque and grand.

It is twelve miles from Ione City, on the Jackson and Drytown Stage Road, has two weekly newspapers in a prosperous condition, telegraphic communication, and a daily mail. The material used in construction of its buildings is chiefly stone and brick, and it therefore presents a substantial appearance. The culture of fruit in the immediate vicinity is an important feature in its industrial attractions, while there are quite a number of large farms which are annually sown to grain. It depends some on the mining interest for its support. The people are intelligent as a rule and the society is represented by all nationalities. Its hotels are good, schools excellent and churches in a flourishing condition. To the lover of a quiet, retired life, it offers rare inducements, while the pursuits of the farmer, horticulturist, or vineculturist (sic) can be profitably engaged in. The semi-tropical fruits ripen in the open air. The sanitary condition of the town is encouraging to invalids. The Court House is a neat-looking building and is on a prominent elevation overlooking the principal portion of the town, and the bar is composed of an array of attorneys to whom any community might point with feelings of pride. The good judgment of the people in the selection of county officers is made manifest by the presence of affable, honorable gentlemen in the "Temple of Justice."

It has a graded school with 100 scholars, taught by a gentleman of experience and ability, one church, three hotels and several pretty business houses and nice residences. Fruit, vegetables, and grain are grown to a considerable extent though mining is the interest to which it looks for its support. The hotel Phoenix mine is located here, which employs one hundred and fifty men. It is nicely situated and beautifully laid out. It is claimed by newspaper men of renown that its growth is without parallel, in the history of California towns. The fact that three physicians have a very limited practice speaks highly of its sanitary conditions. The water, like its fruits, is excellent. It has telegraphic communication and a daily stage mail, connecting with eastern and western bound overland trains. The scenery is picturesque, and the society is of high order. The Independent Order of Good Templar's has a membership of 105. The Forest House is the leading Hotel. { [There are a few listings out of alphabetical order, which I attempted to clarify by listing in their proper sequence] It is curious to note that D W Walker, is listed as a barber, hair cutter, and hair dyer, situated on Main Street. His competitor William taylor, presumably also situated on main Street is listed simply as" tonsorial artist." Ah, the turn of a phrase.

The scenery in the immediate vicinity is picturesque, the water is excellent, and the school is in a prosperous condition. The society is made up of representatives of every nation, the Italian element predominating. Placer, hydraulic and quartz mining is very extensively engaged in, and the precious ore that lies dormant in the solemn but majestic hills which abound in rich profusion in the neighborhood is believed to exist in paying quantities. The residents are sanguine of a prosperous future, and are consequently in a contented frame of mind. There is but one hotel in the place, though an enterprising and experienced person could realize a handsome profit in the investment should he wish to engage in the busines therer. Indeed the demands for another house are so great that the citizens have offered to contribute to that end.
