This is our house: 234 Weeks Mills Rd, Farmington, Maine. It no longer has the 2 big back barns and the shed attached to the carriage barn now has a 3-car garage attached.

The previous owners (1973?-1999) were John and Connie Arness.

This is next to the Hardy Farm in Farmington
I remember putting hay in that last barn.
The owners before the Arness family would let my Father store hay there.

I was told this house and the house next door (Hardy Farm) was built by Cap. Joseph Perham.
They are buried in a Cemt. on this property. I saw the stones
That's how this Road at one time was called Perham Hill

There is a small cemetery on the property, but the only tombstones are 1. Silas and Hannah Perham and 2. their grand-daughter Georgiana (18 months). Jill, if you saw a cemetery with Joseph Perham, I would love to know about it!! The previous owners told us they had been told there was a second cemetery but they never did find it after years of searching. We haven't either! But the land is one of the original Perham properties (Lemuel Perham).

The house was built in 1865 by the Perhams who settled on this land in the late 1700's and built a log cabin where the house now stands. The oldest part of the existing house -- the back house -- was their barn when they were living in the cabin and was built around 1790.

The Hardy's currently hay the fields.
