Curious enough about the abandonment squibs to pin down Villa Verona, Google finds it as a town NW of Oroville(toward Paradise), but DeLorme doesn't list or show it, while S.P. Maps put it just s/o Oroville, the presumed reference in ICC dockets.

Villa Verona Colony (very old named tract) was/is East/South of Oroville.
