MORE PACIFIC GROVE STREET NAMES
Jewell Avenue and Jewell Park in Pacific Grove are named
for the Reverend Frank F. Jewell, D.D. He is listed as
President of the Pacific Grove Retreat Association in 1886
and 1887. He served a number of years in this capacity. He
was also Chancellor of the University of Pacific in 1894
and 1895.
Jewell Park is the site of the outdoor amphitheater in which
the Methodist Conference met.
Another street which we probably travel with some
regularity is Eardley Avenue which was named for B. A.
Eardley, a realtor.
From May 5, 1888 to Dec. 2, 1888 he published the first
Pacific Grove newspaper, ThePacificGroveReview. It was
a four column, eight page paper devoted to the "Real Estate
Interests of Monterey County" and was distributed free.
In 1900 Eardley was listed among the directors of the
Pacific Museum of Natural History. It was also mentioned
that he helped to set out cypress trees on Lighthouse
Avenue. His home, located where the Bank of America
now stands, was well decorated for President William
Mckinley's visit to Pacific Grove in May, 1901.

helped draw up the papers making Pacific Grove a city.
