Rose Haven is a Colonial Revival house at 31 North Street in Litchfield. Built by Charles Beldon, it was converted into a home for the aged in 1946. Note: This post was written on 09/02/2011 and backdated so that there would be a regular post for 04/01/2011 as well as an April Fool’s Post.
Rose Haven (1888)
I’ve didn’t stay at Rose Haven but I visited it when I was a child. My Uncle Ralph Keavaney was running the facility at the time and I remember how beautiful the grounds were with all the beautiful roses. I’m sure no one remembers my uncle but I just thought I would post this.
Please let me know if anyone remembers my uncle Ralph Keavaney or if there is anything in the home that has his name on it? I believe that Ralph Keavaney owned Rose Haven and I visited there as a child in the late 50’s so anything about him would be so appreciated
