Title: Looking For Information On This House

Dear Sir:

I was wondering if perhaps you recognized this house as belonging to Fairfax Village.  This was in some of my grandmother's effects, and since she grew up in Fairfax, I thought perhaps this was a village home.

It's actually a photo postcard, but there is no writing on the back.  I imagine it's turn of the century.  My grandmother was Fern Hunt and her mother was Ida May (Field) Hunt.  They lived across the street from the church converted to a grocery store, in a house that had old yellow siding on it when I drove by a few years ago.  My grandmother married Earle Gates in 1912 and Ida went with her to Cambridge, Vt.

Thank you for your time and assistance,

Regards,
Susan Gates Wieferich

Very interesting picture. At first glance, I thought it was the old BFA in the background. It's not. It is a house. That has to be on Main Hill, though. Clarice Shepardson's old house with the Gates' place in the background?
