The following is from a work-in-progress about the history of Fullerton. You can support my ongoing research and writing on Patreon.
My latest research has taken me to the microfilm archives at the Local History Room of the Fullerton Public Library, in which I am reading, year by year, the archives of the local newspaper, The Fullerton Tribune. I have just finished reading the papers from 1895, and here’s what was happening both nationally and locally in 1895…
