J. J. Pitchford, 1956

Portrait of Joseph "J. J." Pitchford, the Jensen Beach pioneer who established Pitchford’s Camp in the 1920s. Photograph taken at the House of Refuge, on the museum's official opening, held January 14 and 15, 1956. Published in the Stuart News (19 Jan 1956) with a caption reading "Museum recalls much to pioneer. J. J. Pitchford, pioneer resident of Jensen Beach for more than 60 years, looks right at home in this pose among furnishings of half of century ago in a room at the historical museum. The many items on display there recalled for Pitchford many memories of life here at the turn of the century."
