The tribe occupying this Pueblo derived its name therefrom and were the subject of a great chief, who also ruled various other tribes with absolute sway. All these tribes were encamped on the western banks of the Sacramento and its tributaries. The Christian name of the chief was F. Solano and his usual residence Sonoma. In 1835 Motti, captain of the Yoloy tribe, rebelled against the superior chief, and being unsuccessfully pursued, Solano applied to the commandant of Sonoma for assistance, pursued the tribe once more and reduced it to submission. The rebellious leader was ordered to Sonoma, where he remained until the tribe and chief returned to their former hearths in 1846. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daily Alta California, Volume 1, Number 103, 29 April 1850 REPORT FROM THE SELECT COMMITTEE On the Derivation and Definition of the Names of the several Counties of the State of California, &#038;c.
