Township 14 was an area that encompassed the present-day towns of Penryn, Newcastle and Ophir, as well as the former communities of Gold Hill and Virginia. Part of it extended north all the way to the Bear River. Long Valley was a community and school district located southeast of Newcastle. The Long Valley Schoolhouse was located at the corner of Auburn-Folsom Road and Rattlesnake Road.
