Patch,who worked in Boston,and in 1913 by Eugene and Agnes Monahan. <br /> Monahan was a produce dealer and by 1915 had added two greenhouses. In 1995 the property became the center of a <br /> controversy when two Monahan descendants sold it to developer Mark Moore,who planned to build 12 new houses on the <br /> lot, a development that would force the Monahan's daughter to move out of the farmhouse. The dispute was somewhat <br /> resolved in 1996 when the farmhouse was moved forward and to the side of the lot to permit the construction of the new <br /> houses and, in the process, the barn converted to a residence. <br /> • <br /> 4 0 <br /> y a <br /> 1 r1 <br /> Ft <br /> 1 <br /> t <br /> �Kt � <br /> � ,11111111111 Iilllllllil 1I1111'a`= � <br /> 77 7777770J0'777�� <br /> Roll 48,Negative#36A-37 <br />
