Neutral description#

The record is cataloged as a historical electrical-utility instrument. It does not establish a road easement, current utility rights, or a present ownership conclusion.

Electrical utility history#

This record belongs to the library's mid-twentieth-century utility collection. Its historical parties include Jay J. Smith, Mildred E. Smith, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. The reference 1202-03-0050 is retained as supplied with the cataloged document; it is not relabeled here as an Official Records book-and-page citation.

The public PDF provides the document used by the library. Read its complete wording before relying on a short description. Identifying the record as electrical-utility material preserves its particular subject and avoids treating every historical right-of-way document as the same kind of instrument.

Comparison with telephone and road records#

The 1958 Pacific Telephone and Telegraph grant provides a later, separate utility record with its own recording reference. The 1952 proposed road map belongs to road-history research and has a different purpose despite sharing the year.

Use the utility-history overview to read the electrical and telephone records together. The Jay Smith Road utility summary places them within the complete historical collection, and the timeline makes their dates easy to compare.
