It's my understanding that President William McKinley's visit to Los Angeles in 1901, just month's before he was assassinated, was the first visit of a president to California. I have more info about that visit if you want to contact me off the list serve.

This is more of a historical rather than genealogical question, but I wonder if anyone has information regarding a visit former President U. S. GRANT may have made to Los Angeles? The time frame would have been probably between 1878 and 1883. Any information is welcomed.
