Named for the former owner of Moonshine Ranch who in prohibition used to run 'shine on the ranch in the existing barn. He would sneak out in the middle of the night to tend to the still; she became so suspicious of his actions she hired a private detective. When the detective found him making moonshine, he had him arrested and thrown in jail!
