text:
Thomas Oliver Larkin, known later in life in Spanish as Don Tomás Larquin, was an American diplomat and businessman. After some success and several business failures on the east coast, his elder half-brother, Alta California pioneer businessman Juan B. R. Cooper, invited him to join him in on the west coast, propelling him to success and wealth. Larkin served as the only U.S. consul to Alta California during the Mexican era and was covertly involved in U.S. plans to annex California from Mexico.
