Rockville grew into crossroads for early routes / Delaplane, Kristin [242] [ECHOS-1995-242]
Information for this article came from the Vacaville Historical Society, Solano Genealogical Society and Fairfield Public Library. The village of Rockville in the Green Valley Township was located in the general vicinity where the Susuine Indians had previously located their head tribal village. The Indians called this place Yul Yul, meaning the place of the setting sun. When the white man's disease, smallpox, hit in 1839, the tribe numbers were vastly depleted and the few surviving Suisunees left the area, many choosing the safety of the missions in Sonoma and San Jose. In later years Chief Solano returned to this sacred place, where he died and was buried.
