TUCSON, Ariz. — Tucson is filled with streets named for people who made significant contributions to our community. That includes James Henry Toole, the person responsible for bringing the railroad to Tucson in 1880.She is the 91-year-old granddaughter of James Toole, the man Toole Avenue is named for.Pat Toole Cook recently led a pilgrimage of four generations of direct descendants of James Toole back to Tucson from the Northwest.
"It was reported that when he walked into the room he was seven feet tall," Erik Dawson said."That's probably like feeling like you're 10 feet tall. He also had gotten a standing ovation one time when he entered the theater here in Tucson.""It was coming from east to west and he wanted it to come through Tucson," recalled Pat Toole Cook.
After serving as mayor and bringing the railroad to Tucson, Toole became a principal member of the banking firm Stafford, Hudson & Co. "The town viewed Colonel Toole very highly and as a beloved member of the community and as a pioneering founder of the town," said Dawson."But I think the shame was too much for him to bear."At the time, his wife was six months pregnant with Pat's dad.
