Capay is located on the Mexican land grant Rancho Cañada de Capay. Capay was originally named Munchville after one of the first white settlers, a man named Munch, who built a house on the Cache Creek at the site in 1857.[7] Mr. Empyre and Mr. Munch built a two-story building in the area.[4] The town acquired the name Langville after John A. Lang.[4] In 1870, Lang operated a hotel and owned a brick yard and a store. Langville grew enough to have a town plat filed on January 1, 1875, which renamed the town as Capay.[4]

A post office opened in Capay in 1868.[6]
