Patrick Hayes Oral History Interview: June 26, 1984

In the 1980s, Newport Historical Society staff began the "Neighborhoods of Newport" oral history project, which recorded the personal reminiscences of Newport locals who resided in each of the city's six major neighborhoods: Bellevue Avenue/Ocean Drive; Broadway /West Broadway; The Fifth Ward; Historic Hill; Kay Street/ Catherine Street/Old Beach Road; The Point.
In this interview, Patrick Hayes of 23 Halidon Ave speaks about playing different sports at Morton Park in his youth. He also touches on his time working at the Newport Country Club and the different people he would meet there.
The digitization of this collection in 2023 was made possible through a generous donation by the Todd and Lisa Stuart Foundation.
