La Puente High School Class of 1959
most recent edits: 22 September 2014
WHO ARE WE AND WHERE ARE WE ?
We count 414 Warriors in the Tribe of '59, including all who attended LPHS during our senior year, 1958-59. There are a few adjustments, including late arrivals who didn't make it into the Imagaga, but were on the Commencement Program, etc. The list below includes all 414, giving the recent locations of those still living. More details on those Still Being Tracked (Missing), and the Fallen Warriors, are shown further below. (If necessary, click on Older Post at the bottom of each section to see the next page.)

To see pictures of our Fiftieth Reunion in October, 2009, go to the Class of 1962 website, at - http://www.lphs62.com/TOMAHAWK_REUNION_EDITION_1959-2009.pdf Some 2009 Reunion pictures are also on Facebook under "La Puente High School Class of 1959".
WHERE DID WE COME FROM ? We came from all over ! Only 47% of our tribe were born in California, and the rest in at least 32 other states plus Puerto Rico, and at least 6 foreign countries. (Click on the map below.) There are about 100 whose birthplace we don't know, and who don't show up on the California Birth Index. About 70% of us were born in 1941, with the rest in 1940 and 1942, and a handful in 1939. Congratulations - all of us are past 70, and we're now into our Golden (?) Years.

WHERE DID WE GO ? Over the years, our 324 living classmates have spread across 28 states, plus Canada, Puerto Rico, and Taiwan. Only 47% are still in So. Calif., and 8% in No. Calif. The next most popular states are Nevada (7%), Washington (6%), and Arizona (5%). The rest are mostly west of the Mississippi. For purposes of this list, SoCal includes San Luis Obispo Co., while NorCal includes Kern Co. The locations are constantly changing, as tribe members wander to other villages.
The "current" place of residence shown below by the red dots is at the date of last contact for each Warrior - generally since 2009, but in a few cases as long ago as 1999.
