The "Stockton Mine" that appears in the oldest topos is readily verifiable; the "Stockton" that appears next to it starting in the 1960s is not. I can find no reference to a town here except a ghosttowns.com article which says almost nothing, not that they are a reliable source anyway. Mangoe ( talk) 02:12, 1 November 2022 (UTC) reply

The ghosttowns.com article does say it had a post office, but I want through every entry on the Mojave County Post Office Site Records (found via USPS) from that time and did not see Stockton anywhere. It does have a RoadsideThoughts page, but similarly to HometownLocator, it just seems to regurgitate GNIS data (thus not notable on it's own). This grazing info page mentions that there is a 'Stockton Hill Ranch' and mentions Stockton as a 'ghost town'. Nothing specifically on the settlement itself, though, so I think I'd support a deletion. BhamBoi ( talk) 06:18, 5 November 2022 (UTC) reply
