Is it true?


Emmy says that Azusa CA got its name because it has everything in the USA from A to Z. Is that true?

reply

Over three years later I don't know if you'll ever see this but yes that is the truth.

reply

Actually, it's not true. That's just a slogan the chamber of commerce came up with. The name derives from the Mexican land grant days in the 1800s and the place name of the Tongva peoples who'd lived there for centuries before.

reply

But dglslvr claims it is not true; so, what do you base your contention on?

Chamber of Commerce hooey. Azusa comes from Tongva (Gabrielino) Indian name Asuksagna.
