About of CITY OF EL MONTE




A BRIEF HISTORY OF EL MONTE
History of the city, including the name, beginning with the first Spanish explorers.

  • A BRIEF HISTORY OF EL MONTE BY JACK BARTON Perhaps the best place to begin any discussion of the history of this area is with the name itself -- El Monte

  • Most non-Hispanic persons with some knowledge of Spanish assume that the name El Monte must pertain to a hill or a mountain of some sort

  • If this were true, it would belie the physical realities of El Monte as a place, for there are no hills or mountains in any evidence with the exception of the distant San Gabriels

  • Rather, one must search for a meaning to the name El Monte in the obscure and somewhat archaic definitions which were current in Spanish usage in the late 18th century

  • That name was El Monte, variously translated as the 'meadow or marsh', or, as the 'wooded place'

  • In any translation, the significant characteristics were clear - El Monte meant water, wood (fuel), and soil! In the time following its Spanish baptismal, El Monte was to become the 'watering hole' and campsite for successive groups of travelers and immigrants who made their way into Southern California from its eastern approaches

  • In more recent times, during the era of the 'Missions' (1770’s to 1830’s) and the 'Land Grant' ranchos (1830’s and 40’s), El Monte continued to serve as a natural resting place for whatever weary journeyer came its way
