This is the red barn by the yellow farmhouse, close to the Interstate 93 overpass. Owned in 19th century by Elisha (b. 1852; his great-grandfather was William Brown, an 1800 settler of Waterford) and wife Elisa Kinne Brown. Owned in 20th century by Cushing family; Mr. Cushing (grandfather of current resident Kathy Aucoin) sold his Lofty Maple Farm on the Shadow Lake Road and bought this.
