In 1912 Frank and Hannah
Nixon built this modest farmhouse on their small citrus
ranch. Here Richard Nixon was born, January 9, 1913, and
spent his first nine years. He served his country as Congressman,
U.S. Senator, Vice President, and 37th President of the
United States (1969-1974). He was the first native-born
Californian to hold the Presidency. President Nixon achieved
significant advances in International Diplomacy by ending
U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, opening lines of
communication with China and the Soviet Union, and initiating
the Middle East Peace process.
