Wonder if the Whitten fruit store might have been at Lakeport Square in the IOOF building. Know there was a grocery store there operated by Arthur Tuck and Samuel C. Clark, Jr. around the turn of the century. That space later became Bert's Market and then Rudy's Market (in the 40's / 50's). There were also grocery stores at the corner of Union Ave and Messer Street and one at 610 Union Avenue but those don't seem to check out as ever being owned by a Whitten.

All deeds dating back to 1841 are on line at the Registry of Deeds site. Click on the drop down box at the top of the page and select "Old Index Books" to get there. You can then select the Grantor / Grantee and years you want to search for.
