Union ShedLocated at Sheridan, CA Settled in 1855 by E.C. Rodgers. In 1857 the "SHED", a one story house 24' X 80' and an enclosed shed building 40' X 40' X 20' were built. With these buildings, corral and stable facilities, Union Shed became a popular wagon and freight trails crossroads and stop, with as many as 60 teams boarded per night. This activity soon attracted people and thus Union Shed became the local market place. During the 1860's the community renamed itself Sheridan after the Civil War General Phillip Sheridan.
