Then visit the 1873 Cornelius C. Beekman House Museum when “Mrs. Beekman Invites You to Call…” Step back to 1912 Jacksonville when an older Julia Beekman (she prefers not to tell her age), wife of the town’s wealthiest and most prominent pioneer, welcomes you into her virtual home during weekly social calls. Julia is somewhat “house proud” so she does show off a bit while also sharing tidbits from the family’s earlier life and Jacksonville history. Mrs. Beekman is “at home” to guests on Facebook (historicjville) and Instagram (historicjacksonville) on Mondays and Thursdays between three and five. She can also receive visitors on Historic Jacksonville’s website at www.historicjacksonville.org/mrs-beekman-invites-you-to-call.

Our virtual “Walk through History” tour is based on the Jacksonville walking tour we introduced last year. Visitors to our Facebook (historicjville) and Instagram (historicjacksonville) pages can sample snippets of local lore every Friday and Saturday. They can also choose to delve deeper into Jacksonville history by visiting our website blog (http://www.historicjacksonville.org/a-virtual-walk-through-history) that expands on each tour stop. For example, they can not only learn about multiple escapes from the historic Jackson County Jail, they can also learn about someone actually breaking into it! And can you believe that someone was married in the jail? Or that one of the “inmates” was a stash of illegal liquor?
