In 1930, the Bevelaqua family purchased the business and it’s been in our family ever since. Melissa’s grandfather Tony and his wife Kathryn ran the business based in Haverhill. The business truly flourished when their son Burke took the reins and moved it to his home town of Groveland in 1965 where we still are today. Burke’s son Peter joined the business in 1990, and in 2000 became President of the agency, joining the prestigious Renaissance Alliance in 2008.

Today, the Norwood Insurance Agency is being led by Burke’s daughter Melissa and her husband Brian Connell. It’s our pleasure to serve you!
