🦉 Historic Rhode Island: George H. Reynolds House, 901 Hope Street, Bristol, RI, 1839

This two-story Greek Revival home was built in 1839 for George H. Reynolds (1809-1880), a descendant of Joseph Reynolds, who’s home was featured here previously. In 1836, George Reynolds worked as a blacksmith; by 1837 he sold shoes and groceries. By 1840, he was appointed postmaster.

The side-hall home features corner pilasters and a gorgeous pedimented window in the gable end. The home was given a delicate entry portico in the latter half of the 19th century which immediately caught my attention.

Today is and Maine knows a thing or two about taters. Aroostook County has been one of the most productive potato growing regions in the country since the 1800s. The rich soil, climate conditions, and railway connecting the region to trade centers on the East Coast made it the perfect location for a booming industry. The first potatoes in Maine were planted by Irish immigrants in 1719 in the Southern part of the state.

In this promotional image for International Fertilizers, workers from the Lester Allen farm in Masardis pose with their harvest.
