This house has seen a lot of families...

Searching around for titles that go back further than the mid 1900's is tough--but here is what we know so far about the families that have enjoyed this house:

• 1790 (approximately)--JAMES LOWELL built house
• We are still working on who had it next...
• Early 1900's?--Henry A. Miles buys our property and also land across the street
• Henry A. Miles owned it and also ran the general store across the street

• 1940--Henry A. Miles sold the house and store to Albert B. Locke

• 1968--Albert B. Locke died, leaving the house in Lilla's name
• 1975--Lilla Locke sells/gives the property to Fred and Ada Locke
