Home of Mortimer Family on Kieth Hill
Fruit Farm

This is a picture of the farm house that was on Keith Hill.  It burned, and I know that now nothing remains of it (except a few barnstones perhaps) as there are newer houses built up there. What yr burned? What is there now? See page to right also!





 

Ariel View of Mortimer Family Home

Grandaughter of Mortimer family says her  mother was born in Grafton in 1913.  Her parents, Edmund and Mignonette Mortimer had a huge fruit farm on Keith Hill.  They lived there for a number of years, and my mother went to grade school in Grafton. Possibly GHS1930? From there the family moved to Mystic, Conn.  My aunt and uncle, Mignonette Mortimer Bourcier and Charles Dolar Bourcier, lived in Grafton most of their married life on Old Upton Road, next to what we called the Taylor Farm.  Dolar was in the WW I and also WW II.

Left is Mortimer home abt 1920  & Right is Bourcier house at 39 Upton Rd ( Sears kit home)
