From the New Orleans Jazz History Lafayette Square and Business District Walking Tour brochure: “843 Camp Street: Built in 1916, this was the headquarters for the local grove of Druids, part of the United Ancient Order of Druids. The Barocco brothers, Dominick and Joe, who played in Jack Laine’s bands, were among the many who played here. The Druids, who had their own carnival parade following Rex, stopped parading in the early 1930’s, and disbanded several years later.”
