This obituary is from the Long Beach Independent, May 15, 1952. Perry Green came to Los Alamitos in the mid 1920s and became a local real estate agent. Some Los Al histories list his name as “Rush” Green, but this obituary says Perry Green. According to his daughter, Lura, one of the areas he promoted was City Garden Tract, which is now the Apartment Row section of Los Alamitos, south of Katella and north of Farquhar, between Los Alamitos Blvd and Lexington.
