JOHN DENNETT, JR.
Arizona, The Youngest State, 1913, pg 624

The dairy interests of Arizona are among the state's 
important resources and John Dennett, Jr. as president 
and treasurer o the Hassayampa Creamery Company of Phoenix 
occupies a foremost position among the men who devote their 
energies to the expansion of that industry.  Although he 
prepared for the medical profession in one of the foremost 
schools of America and acted as mine physician for a number 
of years, he has given up the profession since coming to 
Phoenix and in the dairy industry has found a fruitful field 
for his activities.

A native of Maine, Mr. Dennett removed with his parents to 
Boston when a child and was educated in that city, attending 
Harvard University, from the medical department of which he 
graduated in 1894 with the degree of M.D.  Seeking the 
greater opportunities of the west he left the east and 
from 1895 to 1903 acted as physician of the Congress Mine 
at Congress, Arizona.  That year marked his arrival in 
Phoenix, where he became connected with the Hassayampa 
Creamery which was established in 1888 by George Marshall, 
August Hagueland and others, Mr. Hagueland becoming 
secretary and general manager of the concern.  The Hassayampa 
Company is a part of the Marshall interests which are owned 
and operated by the holding company known as the George N. 
Marshall Company.  Since the creamery plant was built it 
has been enlarged and modernly equipped.  Mr. Dennett is 
also interested in the Aguirre-Dennett Cattle Company who 
holds ranches in the southern part of Arizona and in the 
C.Hess Jr. Sheep Company.  As vice president of the Phoenix 
Title and Trust Company he is connected with financial 
circles in Phoenix.

Mr. Dennett is pleasantly situated in his home life and 
has two children.
