The little village of White River , ten miles east of Delano , was founded as a gold camp in the 1850s. First called Dog Town, its named was changed to the more respectable title of White River. Among the points of interest are two cemeteries�one north of the river for regular citizens, and small one south of the river for the town toughs who died violently.
