Words we live by...
"I hope I shall possess
firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all
titles, the character of an honest man."
George W., the
1st President of the United States
In 1925, the
former Mayor of Seattle,
Ole Hanson purchased and designed a 2,000 acre community, halfway
between Los Angeles, and San Diego, believing that the areas pleasant climate,
beautiful beaches and fertile soil would serve as a haven to Californians who were tired
of "the big city". He named the City "San Clemente" after San Clemente
Island. The island was named by the Spanish explorer Vizcaino on November 23, 1602, the
day of Vizcainos arrival on the island. He named if after Saint Clement of Rome,
whose feast day is November 23. |
