From its earliest days,
Garden Valley has a been noted for its stately stands of oak trees --Black
Oak, White Oak, Spanish Oak and Live Oak and its fruit and vegetable gardens that helped
feed the 49ers--and many residents today. It all happened around
the fall of 1849 when a group of men from New York climbed out of Coloma, past
the falls of Dutch Creek. The went up the first branch which was soon named Johntown Creek for about 5 miles until they came to a rocky dyke which they
named Stoney Point. (check out horsy neighborhood of
Garden Valley
Ranch) It is here, a short distance above Stony Point that the
stream divides into branches--Empire Creek and Manhattan Creek. The group
split. Part of the group went right with George Phipps up Empire Creek and
formed George's Camp (Georgetown). The remaining explorers followed the left ,
Manhattan Creek. Some camped at the flat where the two creeks joined. This was
John's camp, hence Johntown, just a stone's throw above Garden Valley.
