As with many Southern California communities; Diamond Bars recorded history began with a Spanish land grant. One of the areas first settlers was Jose de la Luz Linares; who founded Rancho Los Nogales (Ranch of the Walnut Trees) on the 4;340 acres granted to him by Mexican governor Juan Alvarado in 1840. The grant included Brea Canyon and the eastern Walnut Valley; a portion of which became the Diamond Bar Ranch; founded by Frederick E. Lewis II in 1918. In 1956; the area looked much as it did in 1840; its golden hills peppered with green stands of oak and walnut trees and grazed by large herds of cattle. In that year; the Transamerica Corporation paid $10 million for 8;000 acres of Brea Canyon; with plans to construct Southern Californias largest master-planned community and name it Diamond Bar. Incorporated on April 18; 1989; the city of Diamond Bar is home to nearly 55;000 residents and is located at the crossroads of the Orange (57) and Pomona (60) Freeways on the eastern edge of Los Angeles County.
