Mistakenly called a community solely on the basis of of the unreliable GNIS database. It never appeared on a USGS topo map, so exact location is hard to pinpoint. Durhams calls it a locality on the Northwestern Pacific RR which usually implies that it was a railroad station, siding, stop, or some other rail facility. No other evidence that this was ever a community and no indication that it is otherwise notable. Glendoremus (talk) 04:34, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • delete I found the original Gudde passage that GNIS cites, and it says nothing at all about what this Garcia was, or for that matter even that there was a specific place named Garcia (I note for instance the Garcia River in the area). So this fails verification in a big way. Mangoe (talk) 15:07, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
