Stanislaus County, California
Stanislaus County is a county located in the Central Valley of the U.S. state of California,
between Stockton and Fresno. As the price of housing increases in the San Francisco Bay
Area, many commuters have moved to Stanislaus County. As of 2000 the population was
446,997. The county seat is Modesto.

Stanislaus County was formed from part of Tuolumne County in 1854.

The county is named for the Stanislaus River, first discovered by Gabriel Moraga in 1806,
and later renamed Rio Estanislao in honor of Estanislao, a mission-educated renegade
Native American chief who led a band of Indians in a series of battles against Mexican
troops until finally being defeated by General Mariano Vallejo in 1826. Estanislao was his
baptismal name, the Spanish rendition of Stanislaus, itself the Latin rendition of the name
of an 11th century Catholic Saint Stanislav.
