==History==
Capay is located on the Mexican land grant Rancho Canada de Capay. 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.〔Thomas Jefferson Gregory, ''History of Yolo County, California'' (1913), available online (at Google Books )〕 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. Langville grew enough to have a town plat filed on January 1, 1875, which renamed the town as Capay.〔
A post office opened in Capay in 1868.〔
