Centerville is a former settlement in Alpine County, California, United States.

Located along a stage coach route between Silver King Valley and the East Fork of the Carson River, Centerville was a commercial hub during the 1850s and 1860s.

[2][3][4][5] Described as a "small village" with stores, a tavern, and a hotel called the Centerville House, Centerville supplied local mines with lumber for flumes, bridges, tunnels, fencing, buildings and heating.

[2][3] In 1864, in an election to determine the Alpine County seat, Markleeville received the most votes, beating out Centerville and two other competing towns.

[4] A plaque documenting the history of Centerville was installed in 2013 by E Clampus Vitus, a fraternal organization.
