Context

"The Webbs had been in their family home on Beach Boulevard, at 2519, for quite some time when [this] picture was taken in 1920. Sam Webb was the town's first clerk in 1910 and mayor in 1929-31, while his wife Abbie held the office of town treasurer in the 1920s. The building stands in the same location today, although the front porch has been enclosed." (Gabber Newspaper, February 11, 2010)
