Fails WP:GEOLAND. It's related to McLeans Ferry, California, and while I don't know what Durham calls it, it looks like it was probably just a natural feature in the river. Does not appear on the topos I can find, does not appear in GNIS. Very brief information here. Can't find anything else about this feature; mostly just turning up coverage for various watering holes of this name. Fails WP:GEOLAND and WP:GNG. Hog Farm _Bacon 15:27, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge to McLeans Ferry. No post office. Confirmed to not be in GNIS. Confirmed "California Gold Camps" reference and added it to both articles. I added Gibbes 1851 map to both articles. McLeans Ferry seems to get more hits than McLeans bar and thus the ferry is possibly more notable. I don't have strong feelings about delete or merge, don't let my position block conensus. It is an open question as to whether this locale and/or McLeans Ferry were settlements or just a ferry. Comments anyone? Cxbrx (talk) 19:49, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
