- Egbert Starr Newbury (September 8, 1843 – February 10, 1880) was the American founder of Newbury Park, California, and the first newspaper reporter in the Conejo Valley, located in Ventura County. Born and raised in Michigan, he moved to California in 1871 and settled in the Conejo Valley after buying land there in 1874, one of the first three European Americans to do so. He was appointed as the first postmaster in the Conejo Valley, and established the Newbury Park Post Office in 1875 at his house. He left Newbury Park after an extended drought (1876-1877) caused him to lose his crops and sheep, and go into bankruptcy. He returned with his family to Michigan, settling in Detroit where he found work in a retail store. The town of Newbury Park and its post office, and Newbury Road were all named for E.S. Newbury. A replica of Newbury's home is located at the Tri-Village at the Stagecoach Inn museum in Newbury Park. (en)
