The San Francisco Chronicle reported that Winnemucca died in October 1882 at Coppersmith Station, Nevada. It further reported that his death was attributed to his being bewitched by his young wife, who was then stoned to death along with their three-year-old child.

The City of WINNEMUCCA was named after the Northern Paiute Indian Chief Old Winnemucca, which means "one moccasin".
Sarah Winnemucca's father, Pee-ato, was the chief of the Northern Paiute tribe. He became chief through his leadership qualities and his ability to represent and unite the tribe during times of conflict and negotiation with the U.S. government. His role as chief was also influenced by his family's standing within the tribe and his experiences advocating for the rights and welfare of the Paiute people.
The city is Winnemucca, the county seat of Humboldt County.
