Gibsonville is a former settlement in Sierra County, California, United States.

Geography

Gibsonville is 3 miles (4.8 km) west-northwest of Mount Fillmore.

History

Gibsonville was founded in 1850, named after James Gibson, who guided a group of miners into the area. Population reportedly peaked early at 2000 residents, declining to 700 in 1855[2] then to 200 around 1882.[3] A post office opened in Gibsonville in 1855 and closed in 1910.[4] The land beneath the Gibsonville townsite was reworked by gold miners in the 1930s.[5] By 1964, Gibsonville was a "ghost town".[6]
