Tuesday Tidbit- Storyettes From Stacy

The Zarbock homestead. Carl R. Caudle Collection

Stacy was a small community in eastern Honey Lake Valley located between Amedee and the Nevada State line. In 1914, a weekly correspondent to the Lassen Advocate provided that newspaper of the activities of that region. From time to time on Tuesdays I will provide excerpts.

30 January 1914 – Ferdinand Zarbock, who has been keeping the Postoffice at Stacy the past month, is very. much gratified over the results since the office has been regular service over the Fernley & Lassen Railroad. The sales and cancellations have more quadrupled from what they we were getting intermittent service from Calneva.

30 January 1914 – Marvin Caudle and Ferdinand Zarbock have just completed the survey of Main Street from the northern limits of Stacy for a distance of one mile north and have moved  and rebuilt the old fence so as to give a 60-foot road. They are now working on the trunk line of the Stacy telephone system.
