Mystery Photo for January 1, 2017
There were very few entrants for last week’s Mystery Photo of the Farmington Honor Roll honoring World War I veterans, with only one correct entry — from Pamela Poisson of Farmington. Poisson is very familiar with the subject of the photo as she can see it from her home and she had a hand in getting it replaced a few years ago after the original began to fall apart. The Honor Roll, which includes the names of Poisson’s father and uncle, is prominently displayed on Main Street in downtown Farmington by the park. Poisson petitioned the town office to get it repaired and after it was done, using composite materials so it would not fall apart again, was given the old one, which has since been refurbished and is now displayed in the Historical Society at the corner of Academy and High streets in Farmington. Poisson is the winner of a $20 gift card, courtesy of Hannaford Supermarkets.
