A special thank you to Willie Granston for forwarding this 1928 newspaper clipping. The location was the grand mansion, variously known as Edgewood, Fairview and House of Lovell, built by lumber baron C.S. Butterfield for his second wife roughly 100 years ago.
The house as it appears today.
This is a beautiful home. Reminds me to take a street tour of the old homes on my next visit to Brookhaven.
ReplyDeleteSadly, it is in deplorable shape. I am hopeful someone will rescue it from ruin.
