Janesville, 1970

Janesville, circa 1940

While assorting through old brochures, I came across one published in 1970 by the Susanville Junior Chamber of Commerce. Some might be interested in the description of Janesville.

“One of the fastest growing communities within the Honey Lake Valley, Janesville is a historic pioneer town twelve miles southeast of Susanville. Many new homes are appearing on the scene as this picturesque little town with its beautiful mountain background and bountiful forests attract more and more people to its bounds. A great abundance of ranches and meadow land lie in the foothills of this area. Plans are being made to make use of these natural facilities for recreational and community living. Janesville is easily accessible  to main highways. Small agricultural, cattle and poultry raising are part of the Janesville scene.”

  1. Also on my “to visit” list to see if I can find where my family lived when they settled here in the 1800’s.
