Placerville Historical Markers Inventory

Placerville Historical Markers Inventory

Placerville Historic Markers Inventory is a co-initiated project by Stanley W. Morris and Dee Owens, and provided in a tabular (matrix) form.

The project’s goal was, and continues to be, to identify, record, and inventory (utilizing high-quality mapping tools) all of the City of Placerville’s historic markers and monuments.  Utilizing GPS devices, existing information, MS Excel, and online mapping applications, data on all accessible historic sites and locations with markers was collected, organized, and published.  The project, presented to the City of Placerville’s Historical Advisory Committee on January 17, 2013, is an independent effort of the project initiators to support and enhance historical preservation and improve the experience of local tourism.
