Maize, Josephine A. Moncure 08/15/1917 07/10/1977 T-16-2 08/15/2002: In Alexandria, there was a woman's club, The Carlyle Club, that did various charitable activities.One of these was the "Lights On" ball for the American Cancer Society at the George Mason Hotel on Washington St. It is my understanding that the concept was later taken on by the cancer society in Washington, DC.and is now a major fund raiser.
Attendance at this ball in Alexandria included promenent local persons as well as members of congress. Mrs. Maise was the President of the Carlyle Club. The event was a very Southern event: part of the underpinning Southern culture in Alexandria. "Jo" was a Moncure. There are two Southern style mansions on Janney's Lane not far from Ivy Hill. The one where Miss Maize lived is recessed from that street.
Another member of the Carlyle Club was Frances Hufford Manchester, daughter of the owner of Shuman's Bakery (now on Washington Street) but at one time right across from city hall and a favorite gathering place for Council Members, etc. The Manchester mansion is not far from Ivy Hill and her son went to University of Mississippi. Shuman's is well known for their Southern-style Jelly cake.
Several homes have been built since, on part of what was the Manchester property. The family was also helpful in acquiring the land for the First Baptist Church on King Street. Frances has a wonderful story of the day she drove to the White House, as a teenager, to see President Coolidge. Frances may have been the only Republican in Alexandria at that time. - Submitted by: Jon Christenson
