Diamondville (also, Rich Bar and Goatville)[1] is a former settlement in Butte County, California, United States. It was located 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Paradise.[1] The town was named for James Diamond.[1] In the 1870s, Diamondville was on the stage coach route to Chico, 11 miles (18 km) distant; fares averaged 10 cents per mile.[2] Cretaceous fossils were reported to be found from Butte Creek below Diamondville.[3] In an 1884 report published by the United States government on the production of precious metals in the United States, Diamondville was described as "an old mining town . . . occupied by one or two ranchers and only mined by Chinese."[4]
