Jann Alexander Castleberry is a native of Hoquiam. Her family purchased property on the North Shore of Lake Quinault when she was 11 years old.
Jann and her husband, Joe, built a family cabin on the property and split their time between Washington and Arizona.
While volunteering at the Lake Quinault Historical Society and Museum, the Castleberry’s realized the original 1959 book, “Trails & Trials of the Pioneer’s”
was out of print. With the support of the Museum Board, Jann has edited and added to the original version while maintaining the integrity set by Lucille Horr Cleland in the first memographed publishing in 1959.
Trails & Trials of the Pioneers contains a wealth of history on the families and settlers of the Olympic Peninsula. If you love the United States Northwest region, this book truly is a delight. From the old photos and colorful and moving stories, it is a great addition to a history buff’s library.
