A Brief History of Jenner
In 1868, Charles Jenner arrived at the North Coast with
the intention of writing a book. The town of Jenner is named for this
literary man. However, the history of the area dates further back. In
1811, Alexander Kuskoff sailed into Bodega Bay and annexed the
entire coastal area for the Russian Crown. He named the nearby
river "Slavianki" and it is still known as the Russian
River.
Jenner became part of the Muniz Rancho land grant in 1845 while California
still belonged to Mexico. Governor Pio Pico granted the Muniz Rancho
to Manual Torres. The grant was comprised of nearly 17,600 acres extending
from Duncans Mills to Timber Cove along the coast.
John Rule built a sawmill with the capacity of 40,000 board feet of lumber
per day. Rule died prior to the mill being operated and the mill was
dismantled shortly thereafter. In 1905 the Jenner School was constructed.
Modern-day Jenner is a picturesque seaside town where one can enjoy a
delicious bowl of clam chowder at one of several fine restaurants. Jenner's
bed and breakfasts can accommodate those in need of a peaceful weekend
getaway. Jenner can get foggy in the summer, though it has a mild winter
climate.
Along Highway 1, there are many beach side parks that are popular with
hikers, bird watchers and those who simply want to take in the ocean
view. Jenner sits at the mouth of the Russian River where seals sunbathe
and Goat Rock dominates the landscape
Jenner is located on the Sonoma County Coast 79 miles north of
San Francisco on Highway 101 and 116 or can be accessed from River
