******************************************************************************

 Pine Grove is located about 20 miles South of Yerington, Nevada and
is one of the lesser-known gold mining camps. Gold was first discovered
here in 1866 and within a year or so the town had grown to 300 people.
Its zenith was in the 1880s when three mills were shipping $10,000 in 
gold bullion each week and the town had grown to over 1000 people.
The last of the newspapers{Pine Grove Observer, Pine Grove Burlesque,
Pine Grove Chronicle and the Pick and Shovel }were dated in the early 1930s 
when the town was vacated to become a true ghost town.
