Additional Description: The Randall Ranch was located where the Dayton Valley Golf Course is today. The pioneer family settled in Dayton in the 1880s. George Perry Randall was elected sheriff and members of the Randall family served as Lyon County lawmen from 1882 through 1936. The Carson and Colorado Railroad (C&C) stopped at the Randall Ranch to pick up hay and other supplies. (See the original wood sign at the Dayton Museum indicating the ranch was a railroad stop.)
