This is a bit promotional, with some history to go along with it. Beginning Friday, November 9 through Sunday until December 15, 2018 stop by the seasonal gift shop at Doyle Ranch located at 451-895 Highway 395 in Milford.
The Doyle Ranch is one of the oldest family ranches in the region. It was established in 1860 when James and Mary Doyle located there. It should be duly noted there is no relation to John Doyle who settled at Long Valley in 1859 and for whom the town of Doyle is named. The Doyle’s had six children—four boys and two girls. In 1904, the patriarch, James retired and moved into Milford proper. His two sons, Thomas and William stayed on the ranch, but divided the property into two separate ranches. In the line of succession, in 1973, Ken and Irene Doyle purchased the home ranch, who continue on.
So here is the perfect opportunity to do some holiday shopping and look at some local history at the same time.
