Gideons restaurnat is at 36 Holden. Having read you posting very quickly this morning, I thought you were looking for a residence on Holden Street. There are not any there now, 44 would proably have been in what is the main street now. Anyway, I drove around a bit and found that there is a North Holden Street which is a very narrow winding extremely steep road, which now leads to the hospital. Along both sides are older homes and some in bad repair. THere were several Victorian style, very narrow houses on a steep hill. No front yard (garden) .One had a sign that said 1895. I decided to check the public library and found a couple of interesting things about Holden street and copied them. If you would like them I will have to send them to you by US post. So if interested, write me with you address, at, [email protected] Also have you tried to search google for Massachusettes Photographers? I know a book was written about Mass. photographers from the past and I have also found info on line about some. So try putting Lyon Photographer, or Massachusetts photographers or historical etc etc etc in your search engine. Google seems to be best for results.
