Book Title: Historical And Descriptive Sketch Of Sonoma County, California

ST. LOUIS OR EMBARCADERO.

   This, as its name implies, is the landing-place or embarcadero on Sonoma
creek, at the head of navigation. Here supplies for the town and valley are
received. In former times, when it was thought that Sonoma might become a town
of importance, it was christened St. Louis, but it never reached the importance
anticipated by its sponsors, and is, to-day, only the landing and shipping point
for the town and valley of Sonoma, by a steamer which plies regularly between
the landing and San Francisco.
