To the Editor:

Pat Johnson’s Oct. 11 article on the Beck Farm house in Beach Haven quotes Jeanette Lloyd, a member of the Historic Preservation Advisory Commission, as saying that the group tried years ago to persuade the owners to put the house on a national or state registry of historic homes, but “a son who was a lawyer in D.C. gave all the paperwork a look-over and said no, so we lost that battle.”
