History

Please improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unverifiable material may be challenged and removed. (August 2007) | Manteca is a city in the central valley of California, about 80 miles east of San Francisco. It was founded in 1861 by Joshua Cowell. Cowell claimed about 1,000 acres (4 km²) and built their houses on what is now the corner of Main and Yosemite where the Bank of America stands. In 1873, the Central Pacific Railroad was put directly through town and "Cowell Station", a boxcar on the side of the tracks, was made a stop. Joshua Cowell's brother, Wright Cowell, had already named a "Cowell Station" near Tracy, California, so the name "Monteca" was chosen instead. However, an unfortunate misprinting of the train tickets caused the city’s name to show as "Manteca" — Spanish for "lard". Since it would have been expensive and difficult to reprint the tickets, the name of the city was changed instead. In 1918, Manteca was incorporated as a city and Joshua Cowell became its first mayor. Image File history File links Question_book-3. ...

Manteca's slogan is "The Family City", and it lies at a crossroads of major highways and railroads. As recently as the 1970s Manteca existed primarily on agriculture, and was still barely a stop between two freeways, Interstate 5 and State Route 99. The continuing rise in bay area housing prices has caused more workers to look eastward for a cheaper place to live or a better place to raise their families. Since the construction of the 120 bypass portion of State Route 120, Manteca has become a popular choice for these commuters. The 1990s saw an increase in the city's population, and the construction of its fourth high school. The population of Manteca continues to increase, with some housing being constructed on what was once farmland to the north and southeast. Crossroads or Cross roads may refer to: Crossroads (culture), an intersection of roads. ...

A recurring name in Manteca is "East Union". It was first used in 1857 for a school established in what is now Manteca. The school was named East Union in order to differentiate it from Union School, which is in an area now within Lathrop, California. A cemetery named East Union was established in 1872 and remains one of San Joaquin County's oldest landmarks. A road bordering the cemetery was named Union Road after the cemetery and is now one of the main streets through the city. In 1966, the city of Manteca started another high school to relieve overcrowding in Manteca High School. The new school was given the name East Union High School in tribute to an old farmhouse school. 1857 was a common year starting on Thursday (see link for calendar). ...
