Is there yew outside its natural range?

Sammakesbows:
I know that Osage can be found well outside its natural range even in the wild due to human introduction. I live in southern California. Is this the case with yew?

Pat B:
There should be Pacific yew growing in the California mountains, at least up north. There are other yews growing in folks landscapes.

mullet:
There is a very rare Yew growing in the Panhandle in North Florida on the Apalachicola River. And it is protected.

Pat B:
I think there is a native species that grows in eastern North America also.

BAfromPA:
Taxis canadensis but I don't think it gets big enough for full length staves. I have found a good bit of yew by getting permission to trim overgrown hedgerows here in PA.
