For once one of the California place name books comes through, in this case Gudde, who states that the rail location is named after a larger locale which was a land grant/farm. That's also what the aerials show: the topos show a cluster of buildings, but GMaps and older aerial views show a large farmstead with a few accessory houses. The railroad is long gone, of course. The fact of the name as a locale is well-established, but it doesn't seem notable. Mangoe ( talk) 02:26, 5 June 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete A few newspaper articles mention Rancho Esquon, Esquon Station and a road that goes there, but it appears to be a locale and not a populated place. No sign that this meets GNG in any case. – dlthewave 05:24, 6 June 2020 (UTC) reply
