News GOOD NEWS!!!
The United States Forest Service has cancelled the effort to turn Palmer into a Jeep Trail!! They do not have the funds for this project. Thank you ALL for all the effort you have put into fighting this project! The letters and phone calls have convinced them that we would not give up Palmer without a fight!! BUT they have tried it before and they will try it again - so PLEASE keep your eyes and ears open so they cannot sneak it past us in the future! Once again - THANK YOU! Check out our new page - The Obituaries of the People of Palmer. Please send me any obituaries you may have to share! So many people have come to the Palmer page looking for family links. Since we no longer have to concentrate on politics, let's concentrate on our past!!

 Palmer Lead Smelter


The Palmer lead smelter built in 1832 attests to the rich lead deposits which brought many settlers to the region to work the diggings. Many of the towns in the Old Settlement area were founded as mining communities.
