In my forestry engineering classes (public land surveying -- back in the early 70's) the instructor mentioned that many of the corners set in Humboldt County back in the 1800's were actually "set" at the corner of the bars of Eureka (and with the future President Grant probably at the same bars -- I don't think he enjoyed being stationed so far west...and so far from San Fransisco, too).
