OXNARD - Two cemeteries - one established nearly a century ago for the area's Japanese community, the other created even earlier for members of a local Masonic lodge - sit derelict on a sliver of land, flanked by a century-old windbreak of eucalyptus and gum trees. Spurred on by the enthusiasm of Eliwood Cooper and real estate developer Abbot Kinney, eucalyptus planting became a "mania" in the 1870s as streets, farms, orchards and even the University of California's Berkeley campus were lined with gum trees. Big gum trees and foliage were still down from Cyclone Tessa, which struck two weeks earlier. |
