Judge James G. Swan
I have been studying Judge James G. Swan (1818 - 1900). I have now created
and perform a living history program of him telling of his life and times.
It has taken much of the year but has given me great joy. I feel a close
personal relationship with him now. I have even sewed all the clothes that
he wears in his program.
Port Townsend Historic Cemetery
Tour
On March 16th and 17th, 2007, during the Port Townsend Victorian Festival there was
an historic cemetery tour utilizing living history to portray early founders.
Steve coordinated this and also portrayed Judge James G. Swan.
