Amador County, California
Amador County is a county located in the Sierra Nevada of the U.S. state of California. As
of 2005, the population was 38,471. The county seat is Jackson.

Amador County bills itself as "The Heart of the Mother Lode" and lies within the Gold
Country. There is a substantial wine-growing industry in the county.

Amador County was created in 1854 from parts of Calaveras and El Dorado Counties. In
1864, part of the county's territory was given to Alpine County.

The county is named for Jose Maria Amador, soldier, rancher and miner, who was born in
San Francisco in 1794, the son of Sergeant Pedro Amador, a Spanish soldier who settled
in California in 1771. In 1848, Jose Maria Amador, with several Native Americans,
established a successful gold mining camp near the present town of Amador City. In
Spanish, the word amador means "one who loves."
