Neither the USGS database nor the Alexandria Digital Gazetteer seem 
to have any record of the locality "Regina, Imperial County, CA" - 
either as a present name, a variant name, or a name from an adjacent 
area (it's very unlikely to be from anywhere other than Imperial 
County or the immediate vicinity). Having exhausted the two best 
sources I know, does anyone else have an idea where, exactly, this 
locality is/was? Was it possibly the name of a farm or ranch, and if 
so, are there any resources that can retrieve such names? In a 
similar vein, I cannot turn up the location of "Lum Del Mine" in 
either of these resources. It is almost certainly from either San 
Bernardino or Inyo county, CA.

Thanks in advance,
