}}Stafford (formerly, Brown's Mill and Brown's Camp)[2] is an unincorporated community in Humboldt County, California.[1] It is located on the south bank of the Eel River {{convert|3|mi|km}} southeast of Scotia,[2] at an elevation of 138 feet (42 m).[1]

The town was founded in 1895 or 1896; the name honors Judge Cyrus G. Stafford.[2] The name "Brown" honors Percy Brown, lumber mill owner.[2] An attraction in the area was the Stafford Inn, a converted bunk house from Brown's mill. The inn was destroyed in a flood in 1964.[3]
