Do you know of Fisherman's Bay ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Fisherman's Bay. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Fisherman's Bay.<1>

Our sources for Fisherman's Bay (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Fisherman's Bay other than they indicate that Fisherman's Bay would be found somewhere in Sonoma County, California.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1863 and closed  in 1902.
