HistoryB
B
The
Clemenceau
Heritage
Museum
opened
in
November
1991,
occupying
former
classrooms
of
the
Clemenceau
School.
It
was
(and
is)
a
labor
of
love
and
dedication
on
the
part
of
the
Verde
Historical
Society,
whose
members
put
in
countless
volunteer
hours
to
make
the
museum
a
reality,
and
who
continue
to
staff
and
maintain
it,
ensuring
the
continued
preservation
of
the
history
of
the
Verde
Valley.
The
town
of
Clemenceau
was
originally
named
Verde.
James
Douglas,
Pres.
&
George
Kingdon,
Dir.
in
front
of
Clemenceau
Bank.
It
was
founded
in
1917
by
James
Douglas
as
a
company
town
to
house
workers
for
his
nearby
United
Verde
Extension
(UVX)
copper
smelter.
Since
other
towns
by
the
same
name
already
existed
in
Arizona,
the
post
office
requested
the
name
be
changed.
It
was
renamed
Clemenceau
after
French
Premier,
Georges
Clemenceau,
a
good
friend
of
Douglas.
