Oxnard, California. The Chumash Indians were the first residents of the Oxnard area. Later, in 1542, Portuguese explorer Juan Rodriquez Cabrillo sailed into Point Mugu lagoon and claimed the land for King Charles I of Spain. Few people know how the City of Oxnard got its name.  Its founder, Henry T. Oxnard, intended to name the city after a Greek word for "sugar".  Finally, frustrated with trying to communicate his desires to the state Bureaucrat, he gave up and named the city after his family.

Almost overnight businesses and residences appeared around the town square, called the "Plaza", and schools and churches emerged almost as rapidly. The City of Oxnard was incorporated in 1903, taking its name from the Oxnard brothers who had founded the sugar beet factory.

Agriculture has remained the major industry, but Oxnard has witnessed a steady population increase beginning in the 1940's. The establishment of military bases at Port Hueneme and Point Mugu during World War II, and the rise of aerospace, and other manufacturing industries has contributed to the growth of the city and surrounding areas.
