1. From June at jkglass-AT-citcom.net :I believe there used to be an estate called "Fatherland Farms" in the Danvers area. It was owned by a man named Forbes and his wife, Susan P.. It had formal gardens and greenhouses, as well as a large house. I saw it only once, after it had been vacated in the 1940's. Can anyone tell me anything about this property---especially its owners-- what happened to it? Relatives lived in Beverly. Any info much appreciated. June
