I am very happy the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to support the monument. Both Gunjiro Tashima and Charles Furuta (the Furuta farm on this blog) were taken to Tuna Canyon, before then being taken to Lordsburg, New Mexico. Tuna Canyon also is part of Wintersburg and Orange County history.<br /><br />For readers, here is more information about the decision to recognize Tuna Canyon, from the Manzanar Committee: http://blog.manzanarcommittee.org/2013/06/25/los-angeles-city-council-supports-motion-to-declare-location-of-tuna-canyon-detention-station-a-historical-cultural-monument/ Surf City Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225762095381159427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591805782334655967.post-79597834671723469132013-06-27T09:12:30.649-07:002013-06-27T09:12:30.649-07:00My father David McIntosh may have photos of the Ma...My father David McIntosh may have photos of the MacIntosh Meat House.

At the present time we are trying to get a LA Cultural Heritage Monument for the site and it's a uphill battle because nothing is left of the camp. We need the support of the Japanese American community. The photo you used is from our Museum. I have recently received pictures from David Scott, the Grandson of Merrill Scott the Officer in Charge, which show the Tuna Canyon Detention Station (not the CCC Camp) as an INS detention station with high fences, guard towers, barbed wire, and a lookout tower on hill. If you are interested E mail me. The pictures are the property of David Scott and Scott Family & Little Landers Historical Society.
