Comments

This is Henry and Alice Pattens farm in Perham. They were my great-grandparents. Their son Robert lived in the white house in the foreground.

I was born here my grandparents homestead all the buildings are now gone my parents are now deceased
I can no longer pick fiddleheads, wild strawberries wild apples, and raspberries here

Actually, Ada Patton's house at the bottom of the picture is still there, as is the large equipment barn furthest to the right.

I lived across the street with my famly in the McKay Homestead for twenty years until 2005.

This parcel called a "dairy farm", excluding Ada Patton's house though including sixty-three acres is currently for sale on Craig's List.
