"...a city..."?
editThe final sentence in the lede begins "He founded a city in southeastern California..." In the US, the population threshold for becoming a "city" is it having at least 50,000 residents. A group of ten buildings housing a population of about 15 persons, situated on a few acres does not qualify as a "city" by any definition of the word with which I am familiar. A more accurate term for a settlement this size is "hamlet". I recognize that saying Istel "...founded a hamlet in southeastern California..." may be an unsatisfactory substitution, so I am open to suggestions for how to reword this passage.
