I only know that my grandmother worked there a very short time in the early or mid 1920s. And she gave me two carved teak side tables that she said were a gift to her from Mrs Livermore. My grandmother passed in 1993.

About a third of the estate overlooked the sound and consisted of "the big house", another owner house called "the cottage" and a huge garage as well as a two family house for the groundskeeper and the chauffeur. The other two thirds spread out from Kings Point Rd.to wildwood Rd and was bounded by Redbrook Rd. I was born in the little farmhouse in 1930. My father was the gardener/farm manager until the gardens were abandoned and the stock sold in the mid 40's. The terms Evermore and silvermore are unfamiliar to me.

I can spend hours browsing trough its content of magnificent estates... and what a great surprise to me when I stumble upon The Great bear of wall street's mansion in great neck! It is of particular interest to me cause I've been a Livermore's fan and have a lot of respect to what this man was able to achieve in the Stock Market... About Tracey Livermore I've tried to find out something more about her but not very successful at all... I have a feeling of her being a phony,just someone elses joke... also her website seems to be abandoned. Talking about the estate in question it seems to be the one Smitten mentions on one of his books about Livermore... ClaraP do you have any interesting story told by your grandma about the Livermores ? Does she still alive ? Can You share anything with us ?

Richard Smitten wrote a very good book about Livermore and also has a website reg. this topic: http://www.jesselivermore.com/<br /><br />If you go the picture section, you will see that the backside of Silvermore is, in my view, identical to the picture on Smitten's website. Also, the location in Great Neck, Long Island, fits perfectly. <br /><br />I would love to read more from Tracey Livermore and hope she will tune in soon again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807386654523336456.post-82616379080649054122012-07-17T06:35:45.854-04:002012-07-17T06:35:45.854-04:00Anything new from Tracy Livermore?

Unfortunately he followed in the family footsteps. <br /><br />The mystery regarding the Evermore estate is of particular interest to me as well. My husband and I are planning on visiting the area in the next couple of months and plan to chat with local historians as well begin working with a real estate agent familiar with local history. <br /><br />Based on our family records and photos it appears that "Silvermore" & "Evermore" are two separate properties. <br /><br />That said, there are a number of unanswered questions.. I intend to obtain the answers! <br /><br />Who knows.. maybe..one day.. the property can be back in the family.<br /><br />TL LivermoreTracey Livermorehttp://www.traceylivermore.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807386654523336456.post-20352900258198116322010-11-08T08:11:43.216-05:002010-11-08T08:11:43.216-05:00HPHS- NYTimes, June 21, 1933, page 19- "Liver...HPHS- NYTimes, June 21, 1933, page 19- "Livermore Estate to be sold for debt"magnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181183756484194127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6807386654523336456.post-47040328698779126542010-11-06T18:08:54.460-04:002010-11-06T18:08:54.460-04:00A clue for me from the NYTimes article - "ere...A clue for me from the NYTimes article - "erected by Mr. Livermore" "Evermore" was CONVERTED from a 125-year old farmhouse into a brick structure with twenty-five rooms whereas "Silvermore" was "erected" from scratch???.

Plus An Aesthete's Lament posted back in Nov. of 2009 this - "Name of estate as Augustina confirmed by 1934 NYTimes wedding announcement of the Roeslers' daughter Rutherford Roesler to Elliott Conger Baker. The Roeslers had another daughter, Jessie Laidlaw Roesler. And the estate's name apparently was in honor of Edward Roesler's father, August Roesler." Magnus where's the link to the NYTimes article you mention from 1925 about Mrs. Livermore designing place?
