Jeffery Hotel
Built originally in the late 1840's to serve
the Mexican community as a cantina and
fandango hall. The succeeding Jeffery Hotel
has been warmly praised in the memoirs of
the 49ers and travelers.
The hotel is among the oldest owned and
operated by one family in the state of
California. The current and third generation
host is Edward Sackett, husband of the Late
Violet Thompson Sackett, daughter of Sarah
Jefffery Thompson.
