Neighbor Contribution:
Lived in an unusual house deep in the woods west of and facing Graham's Ferry Road, just north of Reed Graham's large filbert orchard and south of the Aubrey & Inza Wood farm. House is still standing, though extensively redone. My father helped her occasionally with repairs, especially her water supply which was a spring and pump located in a swampy area near the road. I remember having to carefully balance on planks across the swamp to reach the well house and surrounded by pungent Skunk Cabbage! There seemed to be a problem with the electrical wires and all the trees after wind storms.
