Welcome to Desert ...So far, we found very little information about Desert. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1> We've added Desert to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Desert - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Desert, please Contact Us. While we don't have the exact location of Desert , we believe that it would have been located within present day Churchill County<2>. While we don't have a date for the founding of Desert, you might get a feel for it by knowing that during our research the earliest mention that we found (so far) was on a map dated 1883. Time Zone: The area where Desert was located is in the Pacific Time Zone (PST/PDT) and observes daylight saving time Communities Also Named Desert ...Using our Gazetteer, we found that there are two Nevada communities named Desert: This one is located in Churchill County and the other is located in Lyon County. Beyond Nevada, there are 7 communities that are also named Desert - they are located in Arizona, New Mexico, Nova Scotia, Oregon, Texas and Utah. For more information, see our Tidbits & Trivia Page for Desert. Adding Desert to Our Gazetteer ...As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future. The earliest source we've referenced which mentioned Desert was on a map titled George#&160;F. Cram Map of Nevada (1883). For more details, see References and Mentions for Desert.
