OLD NEWSPAPER ARTICLES MAY BE HELPFUL AS MANY TIMES WILL PROVIDE INFORMATION THAT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE ORAL RUMOR MILL. USC OR UCLA LIBRARIES MAY ALSO HAVE ARCHIVED DATA.

TRY LOOKING INTO OLD NEWSPAPER ARCHIVES...NOT SURE OF THE DATES, HOWEVER POSSIBLY THE LA TIMES OR THE NOW DEFUNCT EXAMINER. MIGHT ALSO TRY THE LONG BEACH PRESS-TELEGRAM PAPERS. MANY TIMES THE CURRENT PUBLISHERS BOUGHT OR MERGED WITH OLDER MON & POP FOUNDING PAPERS.

One more story for you gold hunters, and its true. In the 1800?s a stagecoach was robbed down near stony point. As the robber road of with 5000 in gold he was shot in the back. He road up in to the hills and baried the gold near a sulfer spring. Then road down to his girl friends house and He told her what I told you and died. Years later after she died the info was discovered in her diary. The gold has still not been recovered. It was worth 5000 then I?m sure its worth a lot more now.
