About
Sedley Peck, born in 1889, was often called the "mayor of Azusa Canyon" in deference to his popularity among canyon residents and his trunk full of notes, mementos, clippings and photographs, which recounted the rich saga of the San Gabriel Canyon. The museum, which displays much of Peck's mining memorabilia, is in the Henry C. Roberts store, the oldest building in the San Gabriel Mountains.
