Coulterville
While miners worked nearby streams and veins for gold, George W. Coulter served their needs as merchant
and hotel proprietor. His first store, established in 1850, was a tent stocked with merchandise hauled
in by pack train. Coulter and the town which bears his name prospered, as Coulterville became the business
and social capital of this area.
