Do you know of Slippery Ford ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Slippery Ford. 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 Slippery Ford.<1>

Our sources for Slippery Ford (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 Slippery Ford other than they indicate that Slippery Ford would be found somewhere in El Dorado County, California.
