Agnew's Village, California
Agnew's Village, California (or Agnew, California) was a small unincorporated village in what is now Santa Clara, California. It was named for Abram Agnew, a Santa Clara Valley pioneer from Ohio who settled there around 1873.〔(Residents Share Stories About Santa Clara ), City of Santa Clara〕 Agnew donated of land for a South Pacific Coast Railroad station and laid out the town, causing the station and town to be referred to as "Agnew's".〔 The railroad depot is still standing.
Agnew's land appears on 1877 maps, opposite Lick Mill, a paper mill operated by James Lick.〔 Agnew's Village was annexed into Santa Clara in the mid 1980s.〔(''Decision to fix Santa Clara roads a close call'' ), San Jose Mercury News, June 29, 2007〕
The Agnew name lives on in Agnew Park in Santa Clara,〔 as well as Agnews Developmental Center,〔 the western campus of which was located in Agnew's Village. The campus has since been turned into the Rivermark community and an R&D campus for Oracle Corporation (formerly the headquarters for Sun Microsystems). The latter includes the Agnews Historic Park.
