<P> Elk Grove was founded in 1850 as a stage stop for travelers coming from Sacramento and the San Francisco Bay Area , when the Elk Grove Hotel and Stage Stop was opened by James Hall and the town was subsequently named after it . In 1868 the Western Division of the Central Pacific Railroad came through about a mile east of Elk Grove . At this new location another hotel was built to accommodate travelers and was also named the Elk Grove Hotel . </P>
