| Jeannie Tuttle Hobart was a prominent philanthropist, community leader and anti-suffragist. She was the wife of Garrett A. Hobart, who served a Vice President under President William McKinley. Mrs. Hobart, who was active in the development of the Passaic County Historical Society in the mid-1920's, donated many of her family possessions to the Society's museum located in Lambert Castle. Several Hobart family items are on display today at Lambert Castle Museum, which features Victorian period rooms as well as changing exhibitions of local historical interest. The Castle sits high atop Garret Mountain Reservation overlooking Mrs. Hobart's beloved City of Paterson, and provides commanding views of the entire metropolitan New York area including the Manhattan skyline. | |
