Thanks you Homer Locke.. whoever you were .. Freind Wendy sent us a collection of old (1910 ish ?) photographs that someone found in West Bolotn.. There’s are sum great pictures of our house in it.. including this one that’s in the Richmond History book (note the different windows) …
And this view of Jonesvillee. Oddly, I found this exact same picture on a postcard.. which must meant the postcars were made from this same batch of photos !
And a new phot I’ve never seen of Jonesville in the snow.. You can see all the old buildings that would be washed away in the 1927 flood. You can see the covered bridge which , rumor has it, washed out in the flood and took out the bridge in Richmond. Jonesville really has never recovered from that destruction .
What I enjoy as much as the pictures of our house and town is a glimpse of the people.. Who were they.. who are their relatives ? Do I know them ? Will anyone ever look at us this way ?
ooops .. battery is going.. all for now
