Photo 81-LSO-15

Comments

This is 713 Back RD Lexington TWP ME 04961. My great grandmother Nellie Hewitt owned this property and later on gave it to her only child Melinthia. My grandmother married Eugene Pray and had 5 kids! My father now owns this piece of land.

Nellie Hewett had family in Lexington and Dead River, Stratton, and New Vineyard. She had married Danford Bowie, from the Durham area, and they started this place as a weekend camp, traveling from Auburn on weekends. I remember this place when I was a child with my parents, Merle & Eugene Pray.
