Circus Historical

Anyone know where I can get historical circus information?
I am looking for some historical records on the barnum and bailey circus from the 1920′s to late 1930′s. I am specifically looking for information on a woman named Eloise Jean Martin. The only information I have on her is that she was a trapeeze artist and her husband (George Lam) was an elephant trainer. If anyone has any info on these two people or on how to get this information please let me know!

And it’s that mixture of tawdry Hollywood sex and a strong Christian message that makes this film an enjoyable “gentiles and gladiators” flick.
