Lyons/Hamblet Residence

This house was once the scene of much activity. It was the Lyons Boarding House before many hotels or restaurants were built. The Lyons great-grandson, James Roller, owned the home up until a couple of years ago when it was sold to Mr. Hamblet. Mr. Hamblet is in the process of restoring the house.
