Childs Ozro2
Ozro W. Childs was born and educated in Vermont but moved to Ohio where he was a schoolteacher and learned the tinsmith trade. Deciding to try his luck in the newly-discovered California gold fields, he traveled by ship to Nicaragua, where after a delay, he took another ship to San Francisco and arrived in August, 1850. The Northern California foggy weather aggravated his asthma, which caused him to head south with a man named Hicks, arriving at the San Pedro Bay harbor southwest of then-tiny Los Angeles. They started a tinsmithing and hardware store. After a few years, Childs bought out Hicks and eventually left the business with $40,000. He contracted to build an extension of the "Zanja Madre" canal system to bring water to the fields south of town. He was paid in local land – all within present day downtown Los Angeles. He built a big house at 10th and Main, at the time a half-mile from town center.

Diaz Jose

More than a dozen Mexican-Americans were convicted of assault or murder during the racially-charged trial. The subsequent 'Zoot Suit riot' in Los Angeles was a result of the trial and anti-Mexican climate of the times. The 'Sleepy Lagoon' murder (after the nickname of the local reservoir) has never officially been solved.
