Notes

Although the rear of this card is postmarked Enfield MA, the front notes that it is of the Asher Place, Sixteen Acres. The 1911 City Directory lists Henry Asher with a home at Parker and Wilbraham, Sixteen Acres, and the 1910 City Atlas shows a property owned by Eva Asher at that same location, 50 acres in size.
