Do you still read The Herald? Today I did some research for someone at the Chelsea Historical Society museum, The Lewis House. We have bound editions of The Herald and News. I was able to find the death announcement that I was hunting for. However, I also got lost in the November and December 1919 editions for quite some time!!! Of note: Rosemary Lewis (our building namesake) went to Boston with her mother for the holiday. An article lamenting the cost farmers received for the Christmas Trees harvest compared to the sale price in the city. And, a couple advertisements caught my attention. Perhaps the Inn is the current Forbes home??

Rockets and space travel often conjure futuristic thoughts … we are sharing an historic postcard image that we’ve posted before, created back in 1910. Here is our hometown Barre, with creative ideas about our future, including a subway station to NYC in front of the library and all kinds of aircraft. Kick back and enjoy a glass of Tang and some space-age dreams!
