History

The post office was named for John Adams, its first postmaster, and operated from 1880 to 1913.[2]

Centerville Cemetery is located less than a mile northeast at 39°47′58″N 121°38′46″W / 39.79944°N 121.64611°W / 39.79944; -121.64611 (NAD27).

Centerville Power Plant is a small hydroelectric power plant in the community. When the plant is in operation, the volume of water in the creek goes up. Signs downstream along Butte Creek warn that the water level can rise suddenly without warning. The facility was built about 1900 and generates electricity using water facilities that once supplied a hydraulic mine during California's Gold Rush.
