Stages of building of
Grammie's house in
Littleton Maine. The Johnnie farm was named after the child that
Grammie was carrying when her daughter Jennie burned to death. She fell on a set of stairs trying to get to Jennie and John was born with severe handicaps. He died in his teens. Obviously he had help, but for the most part this was built by my father. A stranger looking building, you never saw, but I suppose it was following
Grammie's directions and needs. To get to this house, which sat on 100 acres, you had to turn off the Campbell road, pass through the fields belonging to my father's employers, the
Campbells, and at the end of their fields you came to
Grammie's boundary. Vehicles had a very hard time there, especially at the end. It sat on the
Canadian border as did our plot of land.
