House that Sam built.

Because I am building Mothers life by doing 'New Posts' each time the story time-line is backwards.
So if you are just reading this for the first time,  scroll down  
to picture of 'Verona abt two years old'.



This house was built in the early 1900's by Grandfather Samuel Perrins.  The first location was about 300 yards west of this lot.  The house  was moved to make room for a new elementary school.  Across the street, to the east was the Albion Normal Training School.
Sam and Edna's first child was not born in this house but, the next seven children were born here.  When Mother grew up in this house she said it had a screened in front and back porch.


                                                                                 

This is what the house looks like today. Updated and still lived in.  In front of the house are thirteen of thirty-five  'Perrins cousins'  on Memorial Day 2005.
