Walker’s Pond

NO, it’s overgrown and is no longer a pond.  I think it’s still wet with pussy willows and various other vegetation.  I talked to Jack again about the picture and he agrees with Nancy, it’s Walker’s Pond.  

If you look at the picture again, there’s a hill in the background and that’s where my Purinton ancestors lived.  They were farmers and owned a lot of property in West Bowdoin.  Some of them were Deacons and Reverends in the West Bowdoin Baptist church which they helped establish.  I learned all this thanks to Ancestry.
