  • The Story Behind the Garcelon Mansion by David C
    Published quarterly by the Lovell Historical Society Volume 17, Number 4 Fall 2010 The Garcelon Family in front of their home on Kezar Lake. Photo donated by David C. Gareelon The Story Behind the Garcelon Mansion By David C. Garcelon At the north end of Kezar Lake sits a magnificent neoclassical style home known as the "Garcelon Mansion". Built for Charles Augustus Garcelon and his family in 1908 and 1909, the house commands magnificent views ofthe White Mountains and is unequalled in the quality of its design. Constructed by Italian craftsmen, the house features maple floors, hand-carved paneling and an elaborate staircase framed by columns. This is the story ofhow this home came to be built. Charles Garcelon was born in Lewiston on November 14, 1842.

The family's imprint on the area exists to this day. The Garcelons were farmers. They were also very much involved in the development ofLewiston and its sUlTounding area. From the time Charles was born in 1842, until he left for the Civil War in 1862, he was at the center of a family which was not only known for having the finest horses, growing the largest cabbages and having the best orchards, but who also started the Lewiston Falls Journal. The family was instrumental in (continued on pagc 3) .'
