Welcome to Mud Meadows ...

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

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


While we don't have the exact location of Mud Meadows , we believe that it would have been located within present day Washoe County<2>.

Mud Meadows was founded in 1867.

Time Zone: The area where Mud Meadows was located is in the Pacific Time Zone (PST/PDT) and observes daylight saving time

Adding Mud Meadows 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 Mud Meadows was in the document titled List of Post Offices from Cameron Blevins and Richard Helbock.<3>

From that list, the Mud Meadows post office opened in 1867.

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 Mud Meadows, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Nevada's counties, including Washoe, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
