At the end of the Mission period (1845) most of what is now the City of West Covina was sold by Governor Pico to John Rowland and William Workman. Known as the Rancho La Puente, it was divided in 1868 with Workman taking the northern half and Rowland keeping the southern portion.
Because of the proximity to Downtown Covina and other older established communities, West Covina never developed a business district or "Main Street" of its own. It became known as a "huge walnut grove with a mayor". It also had another reputation (one less humorous and much less savory).
Because Covina had grown enough to discover that it had a waste disposal problem, it purchased land between California and Glendora Avenues and south of the Walnut Creek Wash to be used as a "sewer farm".
By the early 1950's the country, as a whole, was on the move and West Covina was a part of that burst of growth. During 1955 it was the fastest growing city in the United States.
The heart of West Covina was on the very western side of the present city site and was devoted to the development of the Walnut industry as opposed to the Citrus industry of its northeastern neighbors. This seems to have been a natural occurrence as the underground water was more plentiful than in the eastern portion of the city.
The working farmers were classified 1-C and remained to produce for the war effort. Because the men on the draft board, located in La Puente knew everyone in the area, they knew who was a "working farmer" and who's real work was a 20 mile commute away in Los Angeles.
While waiting for the Walnut trees to mature, beans, potatoes and other crops were planted between the rows.
