S half SE quarter Sec 20, Lot 1, N quarter Sec 29, T46N R16E MDM. Ditch 12 inches deep, 15 inches wide, on north bank, about 6 rods below where road from Fort Bidwell to Lake City crosses stream.
This water right does not appear in California's eWRIMS database. The holder likely has not filed
a Statement of Diversion and Use with the State Water Resources Control Board. Pre-1914 rights are
only in eWRIMS if holders voluntarily filed — many have not, making these rights less visible to the state.
Other water rights registered with the state at T46N R16E S20,29 S half SE quarter Sec 20, Lot 1, N quarter Sec 29 (use) — possibly descendants or successors to unregistered pre-1914 rights.

Book 1 of Water Rights page 85. Re-recorded Modoc Jan 5, 1900.
