The Mohave River has been a magnet for human populations for thousands of years, beginning with Native American groups such as Shoshone, Paiute, Vanyume, Chemehueve and Serrrano, hunter-gatherer tribes that found the land fruitful. When Spanish explorer Coronado arrived in what is now known as Apple Valley, he was greeted by Mohave Indians.

When Pedro Fages came in 1772, he was looking for deserters from the Spanish army. A few years later, Father Garces came looking for converts to Catholicism. He killed one of his mules to feed starving Vanyumes and had a reputation for interacting well with the native inhabitants. Gold seekers were next, and famed mountain man Jedediah Smith carved out the Old Spanish Trail through the southern Mohave desert and the El Cajon Pass.

Ute Indian horse thief Walkara visited the region, herding an estimated 10,000 horses he had picked up en route through what was then Utah Territory and parts of California. The Mormon Battalion vets who had been mustered out in San Diego after a 2,000-mile military march, also visited the Valley, constructing the first wagon trail across the area from San Diego to Los Angeles en route to Utah Territory to be reunited with families there. Stagecoach and railroad lines brought new growth as well.

With such intense participation in the history of America's West, it isn't surprising Apple Valley established a toehold in southern California. But as the mobile notaries who serve the Apple Valley clientele will tell you, there are no apples on any grand scale in Apple Valley. The most common theory is that the community was named for early developer John F. Appleton. It was his name that inspired the official designation of a post office in 1949.

Used to be apples. It was one of the fruits cultivated when Apple Valley was an agricultural bywater of the area. If there aren't bushels of apples today, however, there are bona fide traveling notaries who will, at your request, meet you anywhere at any time to put their official seal on a document so that it is legal. That includes wills, deeds, powers of attorney, mortgage papers, and a whole host of other papers that, by law, require authentication.

Apple farming as a major local industry nosedived during and after World War II. By then, the creation of movies, TV and other entertainment media had become a mainstay of the economy. Cowboy favorites Roy Rogers and Dale Evans were home towners and they established a Western Museum in 1967. It was relocated to nearby Victorville in 1976. After 2003, it became a feature in Branson, Mo., but was closed down in 2009.

Among the movies that were produced in Apple Valley were a bevy of Westerns, including "The Bronze Buckaroo," "Four Guns to the Border" (with Rory Calhoun and Walter Brennan), "Ordinary People" (winner of four Oscar Awards, with Mary Tyler-Moore), "There's Always Tomorrow" (Barbara Stanwyck and Fred McMurray) and a host of others. The "Sky King" TV series was shot in the old Apple Valley Airport and the list goes on.
