About Knights Ferry, California

Dr. William Knight started a ferry here in 1849, at a river crossing he and John C. Fremont had found earlier. John Dent later laid out a townsite named Dentville. Dent's sister Julia married future President Ulysses S. Grant. But residents kept calling the town Knights Ferry.

A toll bridge replaced the ferry in 1852, but the Great Flood of 1862 destroyed it. The new covered bridge was built higher, and it still stands. At 330 feet, no covered bridge west of the Mississippi River is longer. It became a National Historic Landmark in 2012.

  • The county's first newspaperW. J. Collier started the Knight's Ferry Bee in 1859, during the mining excitement. It was the first newspaper in Stanislaus County. The paper lasted a little over a year.
