You suspicions are correct, at least as far as this online source and the Media Encyclopedia in Reference are concerned. You were also recalling correctly that Yogi lived in Jellystone. As a side tidbit of useless knowledge there are now many Campgrounds across the country where you can stay with Yogi and Boo-Boo year round. My daughter loves staying at Jellystone the weekend of the Toddler's Halloween. ;) /useless trivia.
