[edit] History
Yuba County was one of the original counties of California, formed in 1850 at the time of statehood. Parts of the county's territory were given to Placer County in 1851, to Nevada County in 1851 and to Sierra County in 1852.
The county was named after the Yuba River by Captain John Sutter for the Native American village Yubu, Yupu or Juba near the confluence of the Yuba and Feather rivers. General Mariano Vallejo stated that the river was named Uba by an exploring expedition in 1824 because of the quantities of wild grapes (uvas silvestres in Spanish) which they found growing on its banks.
[edit] Geography
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of 644 square miles (1,667 km²), of which, 631 square miles (1,633 km²) of it is land and 13 square miles (34 km²) of it (2.03%) is water. The county lies along the western slope of the Sierra Nevada, the steep slopes making it prime territory for the siting of hydroelectric power plants.
A portion of the county, where Marysville (the county seat) and most of the population lives, is west of the mountains on the valley floor. There is a great deal of agriculture business in this part of the county, especially fruit orchards, rice fields, and cattle grazing.[1]

These are additional placenames in Yuba county. Some of these are viable communities, others are historic places that are now just a spot off the highway. Some of these are in the mountains, others in the valley. Many are old mining communities which have long since disappeared. Some of these locations have been integrated into larger, adjacent communities as the current rate of growth does not favor the small detached locale.
