The Leonard "Duke" Davis Collection
High School teacher turned historian, Leonard “Duke” Davis has been instrumental in documenting Roseville history. A founding member of the Roseville Historical Society, Duke was active until just recently when his health prevented his further involvement. We at the museum are eternally grateful for his work and continue to sell his books to the public for their enjoyment and knowledge about local history. The society is proud to have partnered with him on many of his works and have been the beneficiary of his detailed research as a result. Duke’s books are detailed here on our website and you can peruse them in person at the museum.
"Profiles Out of the Past"
"Profiles Out of the Past"
This book, written in 1982 by Leonard Davis, details individuals who made a significant impact on the town of Roseville, and separates their contributions out by category. This book is the first place to start research on the town of Roseville and is an invaluable resource. Available to the public for the first time in years, this book is a hefty tome on the people who shaped our town.
This is a reprint made from our 1982 copy and includes some defects made by the inherent age of the original.
