Sears, Roebuck Catalog of Houses, 1926: Small Houses of the Twenties - An Unabridged Reprint If Dad came from Framingham ( or many of the towns around here) he may have lived in one of these homes...
MANY OF THE HOMES ALONG HOLLIS STREET CAME FROM SEARS, ROEBUCK, just look at them as you cruise down the street, and then....drive up the other older streets in town and you will still see the homes from the catalogue...Bungalows and more, maybe some are reversed front doors, or stucco or wood, some have screened porches, but, inside they were all the same....depending on the style...
+Arlene Scansaroli Chao, +Marie Piccinini Carol, +Lorraine Rossi, they had homes that were similar in layout.....our home was like the one behind us on Waushakum Blvd, owned by +Paul DeChamps and his wife. It was a different time, a different culture, a different world....We grew up at a special time in history...one of the worst wars, and one of the best peace times, we thought there would NEVER BE ANOTHER WAR, BECAUSE THIS WAR WAS SO BAD, SO LONG, AND SO TERRIBLE!
