Présentation Temple City de Donna Georgino Format Broché
- Livre
Résumé : Utilizing photographs from the Historical Society of Temple City, Donna Georgino explores the history of Temple City. When Walter P. Temple's oldest son, nine-year-old Thomas, discovered oil on the family's property in the Montebello Hills, Temple used his newfound wealth to purchase 285 acres of the Rancho San Francisquito. Temple, along with his associates Milton Kauffman, George Woodruff, and Sylvester Dupuy, established the Temple Townsite Company in 1923 and began selling plots of land designed to form a new community for the middle class. With a park, a church, a central business district, and an extension of the Pacific Electric Red Car line, the town of Temple soon became a thriving community. In 1928, the town of Temple changed its name to Temple City to avoid confusion at the post office. In 1944, the Woman's Club initiated the Camellia Festival, an event that is still celebrated today. Author Donna Georgino grew up in Temple City, attended Temple City schools, and currently serves as the president of the Historical Society of Temple City. The historical society was formed in 1987 by longtime residents interested in preserving Temple City's history. In 2006, the Woman's Club gifted/deeded its building on the corner of Kauffman and Woodruff Avenues to the society as a permanent home for the museum.
