Orange History
Orange's origins are rich with legends. One of the most popular tales asserts that the city was named during a poker game.
When the city was established in 1871, founder Alfred B. Chapman and Andrew Glassell named it Richland. But since there was another Richland in California, post office officials told them to find a different name.
As legend has it, Chapman and Glassell discussed the matter with two other civic leaders, but they couldn't agree on a name. One wanted Orange, one Lemon, one Almond and the other Olive. So they had it out in a poker game, and Orange won.
Orange is unusual in that many of the homes in its Old Town District were built prior to 1920; whereas many other cities in the region demolished such houses in the 1960s, Orange decided to preserve them.
