After George Wingfield donated the park formerly known as Belle Isle to the City of Reno, the Woman's Christian Temperance Union requested that it be named after his mother, Martha, an active WCTU member. Martha, however, declined the honor, and the park, now known as Wingfield Park, is officially named after George. | Date: January 27, 1920 | Source: Reno Evening GazetteDownload Original File
