Port Wine (hand drawn map) - a photo on Flickriver

            A Iphone capture of a museum map diagram. The signs at the edges of town indicate Queen City to the left and Scales to the right. Queen City was located between La Porte and Port Wine. During the mining days, towns generally started as camps and either disappeared or grew into towns if the lode or gold discovery endured. When the ore dried up the buildings were torn down and the lumber salvaged and relocated to the next camp sometimes by the same owner. 
Scales also known as Scales Diggins was further west near the Yuba County line. 
William Stillwell Chittenden (my 2nd great grandfather) married Amelia Brown in Port Wine January 1, 1867. 
Amelia's sister Lilly Belle was married to Robert Montgomery Johnson in Scales.
