551: 751: 56: 247: 258:. Capay was originally named Munchville after one of the first white settlers, a man named Munch, who built a house on the Cache Creek at the site in 1857. Mr. Empyre and Mr. Munch built a two-story building in the area. The town acquired the name Langville after John A. Lang. In 1870, Lang operated a hotel and owned a brick yard and a store.
