Elm Grove

Item Information

Title:
Elm Grove
Description:
This view shows the corner of Main Street and George Hill Road as it looked around 1879. About that time, the Thayer family acquired the property, building Fairlawn on the site shortly thereafter. The Fay residence, seen in the background, was later moved to George Hill. Many of these elm trees were preserved by the Thayer family. This area may have been part of the "Elm Grove" referred to by early settlers.
