}}Monroeville (also, Munroeville),[2] named for its founder U. P. Monroe, was the county seat of Colusa County from 1851 to 1853.[2] It was located {{convert|15|mi|km}} north of Butte City,[2] near the mouth of Stony Creek in northeastern Glenn County, at an elevation of 128 feet (39 m).[1] The people of the community of Colusa fought for and eventually won the right to become the County Seat in 1853. A post office operated at Monroeville from 1853 to 1862.[2] The area containing Monroeville was eventually absorbed into Glenn County when that county was formed in 1891.[1]
