Lecture: Murder is the Order of the Day

Join us for a lively lecture about the Flores-Daniel Gang and the Barton Massacre of 1857 presented by Paul Spitzzeri, Museum Director, Workman and Temple Family Homestead Museum.   This gang of bandits committed robberies and a murder at San Juan Capistrano before ambushing Los Angeles County Sheriff James R. Barton and his posse in January 1857. The events took place near where the 405 and 133 interchange is in Irvine.
