Fred Harvey


The Davistown Museum has a number of Native American artifacts that originated from the collection of Fred Harvey (1835 - 1901), the famous restaurateur of Leavenworth, KS.  These artifacts were obtained from his grandson, Byron Harvey, now a resident of Boston, when he closed his Cambridge, MA, estate in the late 1980s.  Dwayne Anthony, a former dealer in paintings and Native American artifacts, of Cambridge, MA and a patron of The Davistown Museum was instrumental in obtaining these and other artifacts for the Jonesport Wood Co., Inc.  The items listed below are now on loan to The Davistown Museum.
