Latrobe (formerly, La Trobe)[2] is an unincorporated community in El Dorado County, California.[1] Today a small community with a 2010 census population of 219, in its heyday it was an important railroad town with a population of 700 to 800.[3]

Latrobe was the terminus of the Placerville and Sacramento Rail Road.[2] The name, bestowed by F. A.
