At least 4,000 years before the Common Era, Hayward, now a city of some 150,000 residents in Alameda County, was inhabited by Native Americans, including the Ohlone people. That was before it became Haywards, Haywards Station or Haywood. It officially became Hayward in 1910.

Not everyone agrees who the town was named for. Some opt for William Dutton Hayward, who came during the Gold Rush and "squatted" on land where he eventually, after a few disputes over the ownership of the land, built a grand hotel, which burned to the ground in 1916.

Or it might have been Gold Rush millionaire Alvinza Hayward. The latter is the choice of the U.S. Geographic Names Information System and that sounds very official, but many local historians beg to differ. You may choose.

In the beginning, whatever you called the place, there were no mobile notaries to take care of official stamping of important documents, but that has been remedied long since. You'll have no trouble now to call for a notary, meet him or her at your home, business or wherever, and get the job done.

Like most California cities, Hayward had agricultural beginnings, concentrating on the production of tomatoes, potatoes, peaches, cherries and apricots. The canning giant Hunt Brothers, created a processing plant there in 1895. A rail line promised new economic pursuits for the area, but the line was destroyed in the 1868 earthquake. Extensive salt evaporation ponds sprang into being to provide a living for Haywardians.

A large number of people with Japanese origins were in the area in pre-World War II years and were interned in the camps during the war. The war prompted an economic boom for Hayward as production of war materials thrived. Many workers stayed in the area after the war, finding work in new businesses spawned by the war's aftermath.

In 2015, the Hayward shoreline landfill was selected by the Regional Renewable Energy Procurement Project as one of i86 sites to be converted to solar farms. When it becomes operational, it will provide electricity for 1,200 homes. The city had declared itself a nuclear-free area earlier, so solar energy is a natural.

Like art? So does Hayward. It created a public art program in 2008, promoting murals that beautify the city while discouraging graffiti. In 2011 Hayward was the proud winner of the League of California Cities Helen Putnam Award of Excellence.

The city's downtown is admittedly hectic, but there is respite right at the core. The Hayward Japanese Gardens, the first in the Bay Area to be planned according to strict traditional guidelines, beckon visitors. Take a break in one of the gardens' miniature landscapes to meet with one of Hayward's traveling notaries. Have him or her add a legal seal to the document you have brought along and then enjoy the intricate replications that make this garden special.

Or take time to sneak a peek at some of the city's historic landmarks: the old Green Shutter Hotel or the Eden Congregational Church. They're both on the National Register of Historic Places.

Actually, for a city that couldn't settle on one name for decades, Hayward is a nice place to be.
