He then registered to pioneer out West where the Stampfli family settled in what is known today as Crescent Mills, CA and Indian Valley.

In 1867 Mary A Stampfli died and was buried on the Stampfli Ranch creating the family cemetery. A tall headstone marked Mary A. Stampfli 1821-1867 was placed above her grave. Lewis Stampfli followed in 1869 and Frank joined his wife in the family cemetery in 1892.

The local Native Americans of the Maui do and the Stampfli family had made relationships. Relationships between the Maui do and the Stampfli's included local organizations such as the Indian Mission and marriage. Stampfli's also married with the Peck family.

In 1915 Albert Riehl came to Plumas County and settled in Indian Valley. After meeting Vivian Stampfli they were married and took up residence in Crescent Mills. Albert went on to own the local slaughter house on the North end of town and a butcher shop 4 doors south of the current Gigis Market. The second generation of Stampfli's and Peck's continued to branch out with other families that had settled within the area as well. In the early 1930s Pearl Peck moved away from the Stampfli Ranch and moved to San Francisco where she met and married David "Bud" Strong, an owner of a large nursery garden. They had two boys, David Strong Jr. and younger brother Deryl Glen Strong. Within a year after Deryl was born Pearl became home sick and asked her family to move back to Crescent Mills where Bud Strong Purchased the Stampfli Ranch.

The Stampfli Ranch covered the west side of Main Street up the mountainside then out to the east into a large flat valley named Indian Valley. The corner of Stampfli Lane and Main Street marks the middle of the Ranch.

Crescent Mills post office opened in 1870.

Graeagle, California

Graeagle is a town and census-designated place in eastern Plumas County, California, United States, located along the Middle Fork Feather River in the Northern Sierra Nevada. The population was 737 as of 2010.

History
The town was founded in 1916 as a lumber town. A post office was established in 1919 with the moniker of Davies Mill. When the mill changed ownership in the 1920s, a naming contest was held. Belle Byrne contracted the name of nearby Gray Eagle Creek to Graeagle, winning the contest and its $5 prize.

The name of the creek may have had some connection with Edward D Baker, the "Gray Eagle of Republicanism," who was in the mining region in 1856 while stumping the state for Frémont.

Graeagle Lumber Company was owned by the California Fruit Exchange which employed hundreds in logging, lumber production and the manufacturing of box shook (boxes for picking and shipping fruit and vegetables) from the 1920s to the 1950s. Modernization closed the mill in 1956 and the box factory in 1957. The town was acquired by the West family in 1959.

Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 11.1 sqmi, of which 11.04 sqmi is land and 0.06 sqmi (0.51%) is water.

Economy
Much of the economy is seasonal, catering to summer tourism, primarily second homes.

Several golf courses are in the area.

The brewery "The Brewing Lair of the Lost Sierra", is located in nearby Blairsden, as is the Plumas National Forest Beckwourth Ranger District headquarters.

About 6 mi west of Graeagle is the Plumas-Eureka State Park which includes the local ghost towns where mining in began in 1851. As was common throughout this area of California, mining was initially done by individuals, then companies and finally by corporations whose owners often lived far away from the mines themselves. For the mines in the Graeagle area, investors were from as far away as London.

2010
The 2010 United States Census reported that Graeagle had a population of 737. The population density was 66.3 PD/sqmi. The racial makeup of Graeagle was 718 (97.4%) White, 1 (0.1%) African American, 5 (0.7%) Native American, 0 (0.0%) Asian, 0 (0.0%) Pacific Islander, 3 (0.4%) from other races, and 10 (1.4%) from two or more races.

Greenville, California

Greenville is an unincorporated community in Plumas County, California, United States, on the north-west side of Indian Valley. Most of the buildings were destroyed by the Dixie Fire in August 2021. The population was 1,129 at the 2010 census, down from 1,160 at the 2000 census. For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined Greenville as a census-designated place (CDP). According to the Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 8.0 sqmi, all of it land.

History
The Maidu people had been living in the valley area around present-day Greenville for centuries when English-speaking settlers arrived in the 1850s during the Gold Rush. Among the earliest structures built in the community was a boarding house operated by Mr. and Mrs. Green. The community was named for Green, who was killed in the collapse of the first Round Valley Dam. When Henry C. Bidwell arrived in 1862 and opened a trading post, several business owners moved down from Round Valley to Greenville. Since its establishment, the main industries of Greenville were mining and logging, however, by the mid 1900's, mining had declined and logging and ranching became the main industries in Greenville. In the late 1800's, the Maidu tribe were granted over 200 acres of land by the US government where a boarding school was built which burned down in the 1920's. The land was later converted into a Rancheria.

Cheney Lumber Company built a wood mill near Greenville.

Fires
A fire destroyed many buildings in 1881; they were quickly rebuilt. Greenville's population in 1882 was 500.

On August 4, 2021, about 75 percent of Greenville's buildings were destroyed by the Dixie Fire,  the largest single (i.e. non-complex) wildfire in the state's history, and the second-largest overall (after the August Complex fire of 2020). Fire officials stated that the library, fire department, and most downtown homes were burned. The Los Angeles Times estimated that about $1 billion, through government aid, insurance payouts, lawsuits against Pacific Gas & Electric, corporate investment and philanthropic donations, has been promised, paid or will be forced to pay for the damage and rebuilding of Greenville.

It is stated that nobody died in the fire. The single casualty from the incident was a firefighter who died from complications with COVID-19.

Climate
This region experiences hot and dry summers with temps as high as 108 F and cold sometimes wet winters, which can get as cold as -14 F.
