Lumpkin was a ghost town in Butte County, California. It was located 6 miles (10 km) north-northwest of Clipper Mills on the Feather River Railway, at an elevation of 3586 feet (1093 m).[2] It was the site of a major lumber mill, producing 3.5 million board feet per year in the late 1880s.[3] A post office operated at Lumpkin from 1886 to 1919.[2]
