The county was named for the San Joaquin River which runs through it . In the early 19th century Lieutenant Gabriel Moraga , commanding an expedition in the lower great California Central Valley , gave the name of San Joaquin ( meaning Joachim ) to the San Joaquin River , which springs from the southern Sierra Nevada . San Joaquin County is the site of the San Joaquin Valley 's first permanent residence . Between 1843 and 1846 , during the era when California was a province of independent Mexico , five Mexican land grants were made in what became San Joaquin County : Campo de los Franceses , Pescadero ( Grimes ) , Pescadero ( Pico ) , Sanjon de los Moquelumnes and Thompson . It was developed for ranching and agriculture . It attracted more miners and settlers at the time of the California Gold Rush . Tracy tire fire ( edit ) On August 7 , 1998 , a tire fire ignited at S.F. Royster 's Tire Disposal just south of Tracy on South MacArthur Drive , near Linne Rd . The tire dump held over 7 million illegally stored tires and was allowed to burn for more than two years before it was extinguished . Allowing the fire to burn was considered to be a better way to avoid groundwater contamination than putting it out . The cleanup cost $16.2 million and wound up contaminating local groundwater anyway . Geography ( edit ) According to the U.S. Census Bureau , the county has a total area of 1,426 square miles ( 3,690 km ) , of which 1,391 square miles ( 3,600 km ) is land and 35 square miles ( 91 km ) ( 2.5 % ) is water . The center of San Joaquin County is near Stockton at about 37 ° 54'N 121 ° 12'W ( 37.9 , - 121.2 ) .
