General
This project on Stewart Road in Short Hills, circa 1963-65, was one of two designed by Lois W. Poinier for the Roy R. Bumsted family, in this case Anne Halbach Bumsted and Roy R. Bumsted, Jr. (the second was NJ392). Mrs. Bumsted was the daughter of Ernest K. Halbach, who in 1948 had married Poinier's mother, Helen Page Wodell. For this project Lois Poinier designed a terrace and brick wall to remediate poor grading done at the time the house was built. The wall was constructed to hold the grade without being more than eighteen inches above the terrace level.
Persons associated with the garden include: Lois W. Poinier (garden designer, ca. 1963-65) and Anne Halbach Bumsted and Roy Remmey Bumsted, Jr. (former owners).
