<h2 id="history">History</h2> <p>Before the arrival of Europeans, the area was inhabited by <a href="/facts/Chumash_(tribe)/LNcqsRSE">Chumash</a> Native Americans. The first European to encounter the area was explorer <a href="/facts/Juan_Rodr%25C3%25ADguez_Cabrillo/pg6jrAzL">João Rodrigues Cabrilho</a>, who claimed it for <a href="/facts/Spanish_Empire/RaWWgnQS">Spain</a> in 1542. During the <a href="/facts/Spanish_missions_in_California/aesTYa6w">mission period</a>, <a href="/facts/Mission_San_Buenaventura/hIhcabzU">Mission San Buenaventura</a>, established in 1782, used the area for raising cattle. </p><p>Ranching began to take hold among <a href="/facts/Californio/0QKTX8Dy">Californio</a> settlers, who lost their regional influence when California became a US state in 1850. At about the same time, the area was settled by American farmers, who cultivated <a href="/facts/Barley/GH7X2qtG">barley</a> and lima beans.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a> </p><p><a href="/facts/Henry_T._Oxnard/5m7eKqyV">Henry T. Oxnard</a>, founder of <a href="/facts/Moorhead%2c_Minnesota/McFHcelI">Moorhead, Minnesota</a>-based <a href="/facts/American_Crystal_Sugar_Company/wVhHzwz9">American Crystal Sugar Company</a> who operated a successful <a href="/facts/Sugar_beet/Rzcof5lb">sugar beet</a> factory with his three brothers (Benjamin, James, and Robert) in <a href="/facts/Chino%2c_California/X9S8Vfg0">Chino, California</a>, was enticed to build a $2 million factory on the plain inland from <a href="/facts/Port_Hueneme/y2f1gmSz">Port Hueneme</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> Shortly after the 1897 beet campaign, a new town emerged, now commemorated on the <a href="/facts/National_Register_of_Historic_Places_listings_in_Ventura_County%2c_California/0WGD0A53">National Register of Historic Places</a> as the <a href="/facts/Henry_T._Oxnard_Historic_District/PvQ3chQv">Henry T. Oxnard Historic District</a>. Oxnard intended to name the settlement after the <a href="/facts/Greek_language/pzDd6eIz">Greek</a> word for "sugar", <i>zachari</i>, but frustrated by bureaucracy, named it after himself. Given the potential growth of Oxnard, in the spring of 1898, a railroad station was built to service the plant, attracting a population of Chinese, Japanese, and Mexican laborers and enough commerce to merit the designation of a town. The Oxnard brothers, who never lived in their namesake city, sold the Chino and the giant red-brick Oxnard factory in 1899 for nearly $4 million. The Oxnard factory, with its landmark twin smokestacks, operated from August 19, 1899, until October 26, 1959. Factory operations were interrupted in the <a href="/facts/Oxnard_Strike_of_1903/2ARNfN9B">Oxnard Strike of 1903</a>. </p> <p>Oxnard was incorporated as a California city on June 30, 1903, and the public library was opened in 1907.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> Before and during World War II, the naval bases of <a href="/facts/Point_Mugu/UKF6abzk">Point Mugu</a> and <a href="/facts/Port_Hueneme/y2f1gmSz">Port Hueneme</a> were established in the area to take advantage of the only major navigable port on California's coast between the <a href="/facts/Port_of_Los_Angeles/LpHPDdVE">Port of Los Angeles</a> and <a href="/facts/San_Francisco_Bay/gupuMeaU">San Francisco Bay</a>, and the bases in turn encouraged the development of the defense-based <a href="/facts/Aerospace/T6kTLUyV">aerospace</a> and communications industries. </p><p>In the mid-20th century, Oxnard grew and developed the areas outside the downtown area, including homes, industry, retail, and a new harbor named <a href="/facts/Channel_Islands_Harbor/XBq5R8Fl">Channel Islands Harbor</a>. <a href="/facts/Martin_V._(%2522Bud%2522)_Smith/w5DlsbpW">Martin V.
