I believe this is the old Haines farm, now Moir Farms on Sweden St. in Caribou

Yes it is. We own it looks a lot different know.

I live in this house. We have been here twenty-nine years!

I live in this house. We have been here twenty-nine years! It has been a good place to raise our family and enjoy the farm next door...

My mom grew up in this house. She was one of the Haines girls. I spent many a summer vacation and a few Christmases in this very special place. A lot has changed but the essence is the same. I love this photograph; it brings back a lot of memories.

My mom also grew up in this house, I spent so much time there the first 18 years of my life. I like Denise remember spending quality time with family on this farm.

I am just one of the many Haines grandchildren. Ben and Ida Haines lived there. My grandfather grew potatoes. My Uncle Duncan Haines was the next owner of just the farm while my grandparents lived in the house. Picnics, parties, Christmases, riding bicycles on the farm roads. Thank you for sharing this picture.

Set the location,

My dad, Bennie Haines, bought this farm back in 1945. He bought it from State Senator Brown.
Lots of memories there growing up. My brother Duncan later purchase the farm &
buildings after my dad retired, but not the house my parents lived in. Duncan redid the siding red on the barn & shop. He also build the two Potato Houses. This big barn is a land mark for pilots. After he passed away his wife sold the farm to Ronnie Moore. The Haines family is very proud of the way he has kept up the farm! My parents would be very proud.

We live right next door to the farm on the right second house from it toward the north.

Hoping for some help. My Grandmoms maiden name was hurlburt and her moms was haines. Ive been doing research to try to find out about my great grandparents, but since they passed away when my grandmom was young, she doesn't know much about them. Any help?
