About Burnt Ranch, California
Burnt Ranch is a community of 250 people in Trinity County, on State Route 299 about 15.7 miles southeast of Willow Creek. Long before miners arrived, Chimariko speakers lived on this stretch of the Trinity River, and their main village stood where Burnt Ranch is today. They called the place Tsuda'mdadji, and in Tsnungwe the McDonald Ranch area was known as yinaq-dinung-ting.
Accounts of how the English name began don't agree. At least two sources say Canadian miners set fire to the Indian village here in 1849. A family story kept in the Susie Baker Fountain papers adds that the villagers learned the whites were on their way and fled, so the newcomers burned houses that already stood empty.
“The family at Burnt Ranch was removed to a safer locality, and none too soon; one day thereafter the Indians arrived and set fire to everything that would burn.”
- War years, 1858 to 1864On August 2, 1858, the Whilkut ambushed a party of 16 Burnt Ranch men led by J.W. Winslet in the Bald Hills, on a trail toward the Hupa villages. One man was killed and Winslet was wounded, and the party fell back to Pardee's Ranch. In the spring of 1863 an Indian raiding party destroyed Burnt Ranch. From May to November 1864 the 1st Battalion California Volunteer Mountaineers camped here while moving Indians to Fort Humboldt.
- Three days to high schoolJames McDonald hired a governess to teach his five children at home. His eldest daughter, Ethel, studied hard enough to pass the high school entrance exams, but Trinity County had no high school at the time, so she rode horseback for three days to reach one in Yreka. Ethel went on to teach school, and for several years her own children were among her pupils.
- A school built on weekendsIn 1950 the county condemned the aging Burnt Ranch schoolhouse. The Moss Lumber Mill's Hollis Moss lent a bulldozer at no cost, and Ernest Ringly ran it to clear ground for a new building. Builder Lloyd McKnight saved money with the help of volunteers who came out on weekends, and in August 1951 the town had a new school that also served as its community hall. The county superintendent of schools called it a gem.
