Description

Thousands of visitors each and every year flock to the Historic Smithville Inn and Village to enjoy restaurants, shops and festivals. The tale at the back of Smithville–the remarkable efforts of its founders, Fred and Ethel Noyes–is as colorful as the village itself. Fred used to be a World War II veteran and artist with a rambunctious personality. Ethel used to be an unstoppable visionary and self-made businesswoman. Together, they restored the Smithville Inn and, through the years, added the historic village. Ethel ran the enterprise with a notoriously tight grip, whilst the garrulous Fred painted, collected decoys and used to be the mainstay. They went on to build the Ram’s Head Inn and the Noyes Museum of Art. Fred and Ethel left a lasting legacy for the folks of New Jersey. Writer Judy Courter tells The tale of this fascinating couple in the course of the memories of circle of relatives, friends and employees.
