Robert The Kelsey mine was located on the Silverfish Truck Trail. Just past Morris Dam on the left is a yellow gate, that is the truck trail, I don't remember how far but the Kelsey Nine I do remember it was on the right or north side,a mile I think I also think it was on a curve, a was a distance above the road. The mine buildings burned in the Morris fire in 1957. The Victoria to the best of my knowledge was close to the stream and is in the bottom of Morris Dam. I have seen a picture of the Victoria buildings. I will see if I can locate it for you.Iwas on the Rincon Engine in 1957. Hope this helps. Gordon
