About Old River, California
Old River is a community of 123 people in Kern County. It lies 9.5 miles to the southwest of Bakersfield, on ground 341 feet above sea level. Settlers founded it in the 1870s and named it for the old bed of the Kern River, which gave the farming district around it its name as well.
- Named for the Kern RiverThe settlement founded here in the 1870s took its name from the old Kern River bed, and the land around it became known as the Old River district.
- The Freear farm, 1874Henry T. Freear and his family came to California in 1874 and settled on a claim in the Old River district, about ten miles south of Bakersfield.
