Welcome to Lincoln

In Placer County, California, Lincoln was originally home to the Nishinam people, a branch of the Maidu Indians. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers stumbled upon this land, and soon after, European settlers arrived, introducing farming and ranching to the region. The Gold Rush of that era drew even more people to the area, culminating in the establishment of the community of Lincoln by 1859.
 
This town, named after the president of a prominent railroad, Charles Lincoln Wilson, became an integral part of California's inaugural railway system. This connection ushered in a wave of businesses and residents, transforming the town into a bustling transportation and trading center. In 1873, the discovery of coal added a new dimension to Lincoln's economy, giving rise to industries such as clay product manufacturing, notably Gladding McBean, which exploited the rich clay deposits exposed by mining.
 
Officially incorporated in 1890, Lincoln has maintained its trajectory of progress. Today, it stands as a thriving city with a population of 50,000, exemplifying a history marked by growth and evolution.
