SIDECAR with Nancy Coffey on the History of Beverly Farms’ Working Class
Much of the focus of Beverly Farms is on the community’s charm and beauty, and its pockets of Gilded Age summer residents connected to greats in American history. But, of course, the history of “The Farms,” is deeper and richer. Nancy Coffey, a local historian, began researching the immigrant stories of families who came to Beverly Farms in the 19th Century for better opportunities and made big contributions to the neighborhood's story. Nancy's stories go beyond the better-known tales of a summer playground for wealthy Bostonians and explores a much more expansive community story.
