Fourth Crossing (formerly, Foremans) is an unincorporated community in Calaveras County, California.

Foreman had established a ferry to cross the river, which they replaced with a toll bridge.

The town was famous in the 1850s for its rich placer ores, which were replaced by lode mining.

After the gold ran out, the town continued to operate as an important stagecoach and freighting depot, serving the southern mines until after the turn of the 20th century.

[5] Federally, Fourth Crossing is in California's 4th congressional district, represented by Democrat Mike Thompson.
