Angwin California |
Angwin is located in Napa County. Angwin is located on the side of Howell Mountain, 8 miles east of St. Helena. The forested community is home to Pacific Union College, Napa County's only four year college. Edwin D. Angwin, for whom the community is named, bought land on Howell Mountain for farming. He soon realized the commercial potential for creating a resort and hotel, which he did in 1874. In 1909, the Seventh-day Adventists bought Angwin's property and established Pacific Union College.
Howell Mountain was named after the Howell Family, early California pioneers. The Howell family established the first blacksmith in Napa County.
