George Dunham House (1868)

The Italianate house of George Dunham, on Lovely Street in Unionville, was built in 1868. The front portico with columns was added later. In 1860, together with A.S Upson, Dunham had acquired a company which produced nuts and bolts. Originally called Upson and Dunham, the company incorporated in 1865 as the Union (later the Upson) Nut Company. Dunham invented the Dunham forged nut machine and would go on to invent a number of others.
