Farewell - The End of An Era

Mautz Tavern Front Window The End of an Era The property that once housed the Mautz Tavern has officially changed owners as of today.  For the first time since the beginning of the 20th century, that portion of land no longer belongs in the Mautz family. Mary Ann had expressed concern that it would be the end of the Mautz Family in East Bristol once she was gone.  (Note to the readers: I actually do live in East Bristol and have lived in the Town of Bristol since 1997, but still, I understood what she meant).  It is a bittersweet day, but there are still lots of pictures, artifacts, and memories to share. I have a lot of material still in my possession and as I continue to be inspired, you will see me updating this blog.  So the Mautz presence still lives on, virtually from East Bristol.
