Yes, the family story is compelling starting with my great great grandfather but stories change from the re-telling over time I suppose. The refinery in Marysville would have been the closest & most logical refinery but if the ore was in hard rock it would have needed to go to a stamp mill & then be refined. If they didn't have a stamp mill at the mine they would have to have shipped it somewhere. But if it was placer gold they would have taken it straight away to be smelted.Something more for me to check LOL. The more I am learning about all this the more I need to know.
