Two brothers who served the public. One is largely forgotten and the other, a saloon-keeper and justice of the peace, has been the subject of books, movies and legend. Thank you for the information, James.

No idea about Josh Bean becoming the first mayor of San Diego. But didn't San Diego still belong to Mexico then? LOL.
