"A New River Packer" by Gay Berrien


Stephen Sherwood is included a new book by Gay Holland Berrien to be published about the end of the year.  Chapter 2, "The New River Mining District" has information relating to Stephen Sherwood. Page 152 shows the locations of the Sherwood Mine, and also the cemetery where Stephen Sherwood was buried in 1884 near White Rock. The book will cover some of the history surrounding Stephen Sherwood when he lived in Trinity County, California. 

Gay Holland Berrien is very familiar of the vicinity where the Sherwood Mine is located.  She has lived in this general area since 1963 and written about much of it.  Gay worked for the Forest Service and is currently a member of the Trinity Historical Society.
