Jean had a remarkable career spanning some forty years.  She was a
volunteer, writer, educator, planner, promoter and above all, a
tireless advocate for historic preservation.

She was one of the founders of the Colonie Town Library and the
Friends of Schuyler Mansion State Historic Site.  In 1969, Jean was
appointed as the Colonie Town Historian and she soon began the
planning of the 75th Anniversary of the naming of the town.
