A search at NH Deeds in Belknap Country shows that Walter Ela of Danielson Connecticut and Augustus L. Holmes of Melrose Massachusetts purchased a piece of land on Jolly Island for $150 on February 23, 1897.

You may also find more information by searching in later years as Augustus Holmes as the Grantor. There might be a more current address for the family. So far, it looks like Melrose, MA is a good place to start. Good luck in your search.
