Title
Beebe Family - Wakefield, Massachusetts
Description
The Beebe Farm in Wakefield Massachusetts, circa 1890-1910. Once owned by Lucius Beebe and the Beebe Family, the property at 142 Main Street is presently owned by Richard A. Martino, who was kind enough to provide these photos. The lower right photo is believed to be of Junius Beebe and his infant son, Lucius Morris Beebe, the famous author and bon vivant, dating the photo to 1902-1903. The top right photo also appears to be of Junius, who owned the property around the turn of the 20th century. Junius was the son of the first Lucius Beebe, for whom the public Library in Wakefield is named. The girl in the top left photo is possibly Junius's daughter, Lucia Beebe, born in 1892, making her ten years older than her toddler brother, Lucius Morris Beebe.
