...Solid stock folk pictured here. Thanks Stephen. <br /><br />Obviously the same stock as Carrol. Happy 90th Birthday today to you, Old Cuss. The Ides of March 2019. I guess it's finally official. <br /><br />Back in his 1960s/70s school teaching years, Mr. T organized sports for us local scoundrels way downcountry. He pitched baseball to both teams while keeping individual stats. He ran us up and down full court basketball when only playing 3-on-3. Outdoor hockey on Cedar Pond. Trundled us all home in the back of his red pickup. Pinochle & bike riding...<br /><br />Yet, while you've got him, ask about the 100 peaks climbed in his 70s. Solo, mid-winter. Scheesch! And, oh yeah, canoeing the big Maine rivers in spring...<br /><br />Forever an inspiration. 91st year begun.<br /><br />All the Best and Most Health and Happiness to You, Old Friend, CanavanCanavanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04410800176624772360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819690475348058136.post-36052464108437255172016-12-12T15:13:38.591-08:002016-12-12T15:13:38.591-08:00I was wondering where I could get one of these map...I was wondering where I could get one of these maps?

They both said that this is Mr. and Mrs. Jerome McLaughlin. Her name was Susan and her maiden name was Dorsey from the 'Fort'. They lived and farmed where Maynard and 'Sis' Sirois resided, up near the water tower past the Nancy Getchell corner. They then moved and lived in the house south of the Catholic church, where Jerome Webster later lived. Bud said that word was at that time that Susan would lock Jerome in the bedroom when there was a town meeting because of the ruckus he would raise when he attended.Stephen Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14766049165862317689noreply@blogger.com
