John Jacquemart supports Historical League

Extremely knowledgeable of AZ History, John Jacquemart enjoyed The Historical League booth at BestFest.

League member Susan Dale spoke with John during the event. Always helping out, he took cookbooks and Centennial books to the Willo Historic Home Tour for Sunday, Feb 12 and sold more at that event.

Tovrea Castle Tour

Who doesn't want to see this? An imposing sight from all around Phoenix and it is closed to the public. What a shame.




































Former Mayor and historic preservationist John Driggs is working tirelessly to have it opened and enjoyed. The Historical League got a very up close and personal look at the amazing construction and cactus gardens. We loved it. A sold out tour, we split into three groups. John Jacquemart, an extremely knowledgeable person (and author) of historic Phoenix, led my group. The pictures tell it all.

Tea at Phoenix Museum of History

The Phoenix Museum of History held a tea as a fund raiser and several members of the Historical League were there to help support it. Looks like this event was lots of fun. I was out of town but just got these photos. The hats were a lovely Victorian touch and the men serving in tuxedos was an added bonus. Sorry I missed it but we can share the fun with these photos. Mary Parker and Jeannine Moyle pose for the camera. AHS Museum Director Dr Peter Walsh is surrounded by (L to R) Nancy Evans, Jeannine Moyle (wearing hat), Dee Steen and Ruth Ann Hogan (also wearing hat). Ruth Ann and John Jacquemart admire the second prize winning decorated table. The fourth photo shows Jeannine Moyle, Frank Barrios (very elegant in tux), Phoenix Museum of History Director Vicki Berger, Vicki's husband, Roger, and Wesley Mittelsleadt.
