Book Description
This book is about growing up in a little church on a hill. People back then had more faith and belief in God and knew He would always make a way. Older people were firmer than nowadays. If someone did something wrong, not only did they get whipped by the old folks, but they told the person's parents and they got another one. Oh! Those golden memories will last a lifetime.

Book Description
"Franklin County, Massachusetts is an area brimming with anecdotes of American history, from the Colonial period ...through the Revolution, the Civil War, the opening and industrialization of the country to today's information age, the county has had a vital role. The photographs collected in this book open a window on the latter part-- photography came to the county in the 1840s-- of that story. The Recorder, with the help of readers and local historical organizations, has collected a fascinating sampling."-- p. 7.

Book Description
Snow swirled around the first Sandy River settlers in the winter of 1780, testing pioneering spirits. But the founders proved tough and able, incorporating Farmington in 1794 and soon establishing other towns, raising crops, building roads and institutions and bringing Franklin County to life. Former Lewiston Sun Journal columnist Luann Yetter describes the early years, the rumored Indian attack that led to the discovery of Rangeley Lakes, the World War I sacrifices of Company K and the Weld baseball player who managed Babe Ruth's Red Sox to two World Series championships. Yetter also notes the delinquent debt collected by Paul Revere, the murder suspect who made history by (unsuccessfully) defending himself and the near total destruction wrought by the flood of 1869. Describing war, wealth, industry and oddity, she reveals the richness of Franklin County's past.

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Franklin County: A Collection of Reminiscences of the Early Settlement of the Country; With Biographical Sketches, and a Complete History of the County to the Present Time It is the design of this Work to preserve for the people of Franklin County an imperishable record of its early history - now existing only in the memory of the more aged settlers, and in scattering and detached papers and records, which are every year wasting away. To write the history of a single county, may to some appear like a very small business; while to others it is considered very desirable that some one should do so in every county. How else are the names and memory of our early settlers and friends to be preserved? And who is there that would not be pleased to look back, or to have his children look back, upon some record of his early days, and of departed friends? And how else Should strangers, settling among us, so readily obtain acknowledge of our institutions and public characters, as by some such local publication?
