Mansion in May 2025, Wildfair
Chester Library is excited to host Barry Thomson, historian for Mansion in May 2025, the signature fundraiser for the Women's Association for Morristown Medical Center. This year’s Mansion in May, Wildfair, is a designer showhouse located in Chester, NJ.
The Mansion is located in Chester and before it was turned into a picturesque and gracious country estate, the property had long been a working farm and the site of a gristmill, sawmill and workshop for the manufacture of millstones. In 1934, Elizabeth and Harry Bowly Hollins III, a New York banker and broker, acquired the property and soon hired the Philadelphia architectural firm of Willing, Sims & Talbutt to design their new country estate.
