No, as far as I know they were just interned. But they lost
everything they couldn't bring with them in a few suitcases,
including homes and land. Many of them had very successful
truck farms in California's San Joaquin Valley. That is
still pretty atrocious IMO.

And when I fear, fair creature of an hour,
That I shall never look upon thee more,
Never have relish in thy faery power
Of unreflecting love!-then on the shore
Of the wide world I stand alone, and think
Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink.
from When I Have Fears, John Keats
