History
The town was laid out with 40 lots along the railroad tracks in 1871.[3] It was named for Mary Kimberlain, a local resident.[4]
The town suffered severe damage due to an EF-4 tornado on March 2, 2012. Major Chuck Adams of the Clark County Sheriff's Department described the town as "completely gone."[5][6] The 1891 Marysville Christian Church was blown four feet off its foundation. As reported in the Los Angeles Times, pastor Bob Priest stated: "We recognize that the church is not the building and we can rebuild the building. I hope to build bigger and better."[3] Of the 40 to 50 houses in the town, many but not all were damaged beyond repair.[3]
