Immigrant Road over the Greensprings
After the Immigrant Road crossed Jenny Creek going westward toward Ashland, Oregon it went by the place now known as the Zinn Ranch, and on by the Twenty-Mile Spring, and crossed Keln Creek about where the present highway is now located, and on over the summit.
Sailor Bailey told me that his father, George H. Bailey, at the age of sixteen, came over this old road with an immigrant train from Missouri in 1850. And the place now known as the Zinn Ranch was at that time named Round Valley
when the immigrant train stayed there for a. few days to rest and re-arrange their ox-teams after some of their oxen were stolen by the Indians while they were coming through the Klamath Basin.
