Re: Where was Whiskey Diggings?
Tried search for LOWE in Sierra county 1860 in Heritage Quest and got nada. However did find a LOW which seems to fit your other parameters (first names). Heritage Quest microfiche pretty good and location you're looking for is Whiskey Diggings Township #8.
Post Office on same census page is Gibsonville. If typical, suspect this is a more pinpoint location than the township. You can find it at Topozone URL:

As you've probably already found out, Goggle usually comes up with a location in Plumas county for Whiskey Diggings.
