− | '''History of the Home'''
| |
− |
| |
− | *The Home was founded in 1867 by a consortium of Massachusetts mercantile gentry, needing more beds to house the urchins that were then plaguing Boston and its environs, and wanting to feel good about themselves in the process.
| |
− | *The cornerstone for the Home itself was laid in summer 1868 and the building complete in the fall of that year.
| |
− | *It was first populated in December of 1868. Most of the initial children were Civil War orphans.
| |
− | *The Home went through a handful of administrators over its first decade, until Artemis Strozier took over in 1876. The Home prospered under his leadership.
| |
− | *He retired in 1890, to be technically succeeded by his son, Geoffrey. There is some question about whether Geoffrey was anything other than a figurehead as opposed to his sister Tabitha.
| |
− | *In any event, Geoffrey retired in 1914 and his son-in-law Thomas Shipley technically took over at that point. As Graves would know, Clara did most of the actual administering.
| |
− | *The Home came close to closing a few times in its early years, Artemis Shipley righted the ship and there were no really notable catastrophes until recent events.
| |
− | *There is an off-hand mention of a legal case in 1906 - Bergeron v. New Old Way Home Trust - mentioned on a court calendar. But no other reported information about it.
