Biography/Administrative History
The La Laguna Revue Magazine was created in 1961 by Roger Mayhall, who was also the magazine’s publisher. Mayhall visualized
a permanent record for the history of Elsinore and the surrounding area, by creating a monthly magazine that showed its development.
Moreover, Mayhall wanted to create a pictorial magazine that would not only tell the reader, but show them with pictures.
The La Laguna Revue name derived from the local Native American tribe Pa-hav-ha, who called the Lake Elsinore area Laguna
Grande. And from Julian Manriquez, who received a 13,000 acre Spanish land grant in Elsinore entitled Rancho La Laguna. Thus,
the staff members settled on La Laguna Revue. Unfortunately, during the late 1960s the La Laguna Revue stopped being printed.
Scope and Content of Collection
The Laguna Revue Magazine covered local events of Elsinore and several surrounding cities. These surrounding cities included
Aguana, Anza, Lakeland Village, Moreno, Murrieta, Perris, Quail Valley, Sedco Hills, Sun City, Sunnymead, Temecula, The Valleys
of Alberhill, and Wildomar. The magazine covered political, economic, social, and environmental events of these areas. For
example, the magazine wrote an article the creation of Sun City in one issue and in another issue covered the history of the
Santa Fe Depot located in Perris.
