Aaaaaand another rail spot, apparently for a siding into what apparently was a packing plant. You can even see the sign next to the track in StreetView. What you can't see is any settlement, because there is not and never was one.

Pulling out the history books again, there's no Kevet at all in the Arcadia books
ISBN9780738531243 and
ISBN9781439638347, which isn't too surprising as this is not in Santa Paula, being just outside. Nor is there anything in the 1883
History of Ventura county California at the
Internet Archive. A 1920 USDA Bulletin reveals that lemons were shipped from this station, reinforcing the packing plant hypothesis. Further reinforcement comes from a Limoneira Field across the road and a Packing House Road. Which brings us back to
ISBN9781439638347, which has the Limoneira Packinghouse and the Limoneira Ranch. It turns out that
Limoneira is notable and we already have it. Why its local railway station on East Telegraph Road was named Kevet is lost to history. I can only guess that it might be related to the McKevett family and the fairly notableTeague-McKevett Ranch, which the mass GNIS importers didn't even know was there, which was settled (as it had worker housing), and which will be settled too.
However, that does mean that
Limoneira, California over near West Telegraph Road should be next on your list. ☺
