Census Data for Gaskell

So far, we found very little information about Gaskell. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Gaskell to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Gaskell - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Gaskell, please Contact Us.


As far as we can tell, Gaskell has not been included in past Census counts, so there is no population information for this community.

While we don't have census information for Gaskell, you might be interested in some nearby communities where we do:

Humboldt County ...

Gaskell is located in Humboldt County<2>.

Miscellaneous Information for Gaskell ...

The Federal government has assigned various identifying codes to each community, county and state. At one time or another, the US Census Bureau has used one (or more) of the following identifiers when referring to either Humboldt County or the community of Gaskell:

  • The FIPS Codes ...
    • An earlier (and largely obsolete) identification method was called the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS):
    • State Code: 32 (Nevada)
    • County Code: 013 (Humboldt County)
    • Place Code: 26900 (Gaskell)
    • State & County Code: 32/013 (Nevada / Humboldt County)
    • State & Place Code: 32/26900 (Nevada / Gaskell)
  • Misc. Census Codes ...
    • Gaskell would have been located in Census Region #4 (the West Region) and Division #8 (the Mountain Division).

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Gaskell, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
