History:
In addition to its visual charms, you won't find another place like this. The earliest buildings are said to date to pre 1800 and the construction of the two stone structures ("The West" and "The Main") are consistent with that era. It is said that British Army officers pre and/or during the war of 1812 billeted on this site.
The large tract of property along Stockton Lane that included the Kimble Estate was purchased by Dr. Charles Stockton, a UB professor of medicine who was one of several physicians to attend to president William McKinley after he was shot (and later died) at the hands of an assassin at the Pan American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901. Anna Kimble (related and/or otherwise close to one or more Stocktons presided over this property from somewhere in the1930's to 1969. Ms. Kimble was a bohemian arts lover and supporter of the Albright Knox art gallery in Buffalo as well as other arts and cultural organizations.
Anna Kimble hosted arts events, musical performances and recitals in the Studio. We have been told (with some authority) by some who recall that the arts events held here that made for an excellent excuse for some socializing and " cocktail and wine therapy".
Pulitzer nominated playwright A. R. Gurney's mother was a close friend of Ms. Kimble and had the opportunity to know her. A. R. Gurney actually immortalized Anna as the prime character (Anna Trumble) in a play performed around the world for which this property is the actual setting. We encourage you to read the play What I Did Last Summer while you are here (we have scripts if you are interested).
