McKay, Calaveras County, California

This one is another puzzle, in that there was a prominent McKay family of loggers, and their names show up constantly in searching. There is also an area to the east of this supposed settlement called "McKay's Point", and just east of that is the McKay's Point Dam and reservoir. What I cannot find is anyone referring to a place called McKay, other than standard clickbait. The closest I came was local historical reminiscence talking about the family and implying that the various members lived close to one another. It's possible that this McKay is that locale, but I cannot firmly establish that. Mangoe (talk) 13:40, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete The McKay family operated one of the areas earliest sawmills on Love Creek. I'm guessing the site named McKay marks the location of that sawmill and other logging facilities. The fact that we can only speculate on what was there seems to be a good indication that it isn't notable. Glendoremus (talk) 04:59, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
