This is where our family lived, in the big square house. We live downstaIrs; it was two apartments. Mom and dad had a bedroom and us 6 kids had the other bedroom. It was heated with a wood furnace (without blowers, they didn't exist) and it had one giant register in the hall where we would all stand and try to get warm and cold cold days. Got in a lot of trouble playing in that barn. I believe Harold Wood owned the house and barn.

Mr. and Mrs. Cray (Jack?) owned the smaller house. I remember the rats running when they burned the old garage/shed. They had a great rhubarb patch and blackberry bushes. Larry and Cheryl Skidgell bought the house and lived there with there kids for awhile. Hope and Linwood McPherson lived at the end of the dirt road.

Jackie and Vaughn Griffin lived there at one time. Jackie was my hair dresser. Probably in the 60"s or early 70's.

Frank and Diane Plummer lived in the house last then work took them down state. Frank passed away not long ago and will surely be missed.
