Description
From 1854 until the Tule River changed its course in 1862, Peter Goodhue operated an emigrant trail stopping place on the banks of the river. From 1858 to 1861, it also was a station of the Butterfield Overland Mail Stage. The location then was taken over by R. Porter Putnam who, in 1864, founded the town of Porterville, named for him. The marker now resides in a small park at the intersection of North Main Street and Sunnyside Avenue in Porterville.
