Welcome to the history of Davis Crest. Every town has a beginning, and ours starts in New York City in 1853, with a father willing to gamble everything on the promise of California gold. Davis Crest may be fictional, but the world around it isn't, so this is where I open up the research drawer: the gold rush records and old California maps, the frontier histories, and the real lives that inspired Mary Davis and her sisters as I built their town one detail at a time. Are you ready for a journey back in time? Then settle in, and let me show you where it all began.
