So when I add a new user, I want them to have a nice set of Nautilus bookmarks pre-loaded.

If I look in:

~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks

I see this:

...
file:///home/myuserid/Documents
file:///home/myuserid/Music
file:///home/myuserid/Pictures
file:///home/myuserid/Videos
file:///home/myuserid/Downloads
...

Simple enough but actually not very helpful. How does this file get created?

You can edit your own bookmarks file. On each line, specify a bookmark URL (either as file:///... or smb:// or ftp://, etc) followed by a space and a user-friendly name, which may contain spaces. Nautilus will pick it up automatically.
