Earl Bell Gilmore (1887–1964) was the son of Arthur Fremont Gilmore and took control of the family businesses, including the Gilmore Oil Company, in 1918.[1] He was inducted into the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum in 1987.[2] Gilmore was born and died in the historic Rocha Adobe.[3] According to the Los Angeles Times, "E. B. Gilmore is credited with running one of Los Angeles' first gasoline stations...It is said that around 1910 young Gilmore would load his horsedrawn wagon with gasoline from the family refinery and then wait on the corner of Wilshire and La Brea for automobiles from the city to come by. He sold his product for 10 cents a gallon and purified it by pouring it through a chamois."[3]
