2,700 More Images Added to Monrovia Historical Society Online Digital Archive
William Monroe (on train) working on Alaska railroad.
More than 2,700 historic images were added this June to Monrovia's Legacy Project, the Monrovia Historical Society's online digital record of photographs and papers from the city's early years.
The new items have been grouped in a dozen collections listed under "What's New?" on the Welcome page, (cityofmonrovia.pastperfectonline.com/). Click on each title for a short description, suggested searches and special treasures.
With City Historian Steve Baker’s passing in 2022, dozens more boxes worth of historical materials were discovered in his homes. Everything from maps and ledgers to scrapbooks and rare photos. With support from the city, “Monrovia Legacy Project 2.0” began last summer, led again by Sandy Burud of the Monrovia Historical Society with help from volunteers. The first year of that effort to organize, identify, scan, archive and add them to the online collection is now complete.
Among new items are images of the Monroe Cottage that William and Mary Jane Monroe built before their palatial home, The Oaks, photos of William in Alaska — where he built a railroad after founding Monrovia, Wildcats newsletters from the 1930s, bios of early families, Steve Baker’s speeches and writings, insurance maps with building details in 1888, more Monrovia Days parades, E.B. Gray photographs of the San Gabriel canyons, Julius Parker’s scrapbook from WWII, the story behind the Sanatorium Wars in the 1920s, and many others.
The work is far from complete. When finished, the archive should have more than 7,000 images. Year Two is now underway, with more treasures to be documented. If you’d like to help or if you have historic photos or papers to add, please email the Monrovia Historical Society at monroviahistoricalsociety1896@gmail.com or text/call 675.8323.

A Moment in Monrovia History: Mills Hotel - First Commercial Building in Monrovia
Built by John C. Anderson, this was the first commercial building in Monrovia, serving visitors who came to Monrovia to consider locating here. It was located at 510-512 Myrtle, shown in the 1888 tax rolls as owned by Presley Baker, who would have bought it from someone else. On the left is the addition to the original Hotel building. It was later managed by C.C. Hotchkiss, uncle of Myron Hotchkiss, later City Historian. The Hotel (also called the Mills Hotel, Wisteria Hotel) was the site of the election to incorporate the City of Monrovia in 1886. Little Homer Hull was killed by a flying hitching post caused when a horse was frightened and bolted; he was taken into the Hotel and died from his injuries. From the Myron Hotchkiss collection.
