The fascinating story behind the Teegarden House is what makes it so special to the community.

DR. ELI TEEGARDEN
Dr. Eli Teegarden traveled all the way from Ohio to Yuba City during the Gold Rush. He set up his medical practice in Marysville and had his house shipped from Ohio to San Francisco. From there, it traveled up the Sacramento and Feather River to reach Marysville. Once his house was built, Dr. Teegarden started his political career in Yuba and Sutter Counties. Eventually, he was elected to the State Senate.

THE MAYOR'S HOME
The old house became the home of a former Yuba City Mayor, Perry Mosburg, and his family. In World War II, Mosburg provided shelter for soldiers from Camp Beale in the basement and attic. Today, his daughters Barbara and Joyce still live in Yuba City!

THE PAINES
Cindy and Jerry Paine, who were raised in Yuba City, had lots of fond memories associated with the house. They decided to buy the property and, after making some changes, turned it into a popular place for hosting events. They also used it for holding classes and community gatherings.
