HART’S LOCATION — The Saunders family who operated the Grafton Lumber Co. and owned the White Mountains town of Livermore came from Lawrence, Mass.

Patriarch Daniel Saunders Sr. (1796-1872) was founder of Lawrence and builder of the dam and waterway system that powered the famous mill complex there. He was reputedly an early abolitionist leading the local anti-slavery movement. It is also reported that his home was a stop on the Underground Railroad.
