Read about a small area that is half-way between the Equator (3,197 miles) and the North Pole (3,107 miles). It is the Gateway to the Maine Forest. The book includes residents names, house location for several streets. The section of Main Street goes for 7-8 miles-from Moscow to Solon, Maine. It starts with the first settlers that arrived in 1784 and ends with the residents in 2000. It includes the location of who originally owned the properties up through who owned the property in 2000. There are many pictures of these properties and or residents from 1822 up to 2000. It includes the section on Moscow, Maine where GE was contracted by the Air Force to build an Over-The Horizon Backscatter Radar System. The Sectors in Moscow would provide surveillance covering 180 degrees from Greenland to Cuba. Two other sites, one in Oregon and one in Idaho were set up at the same time. The cost of the full program was $1.2 Billion. In 1991 the Pentagon decided to 'Mothball the project because after the collapse of Communism the threat no longer existed.'. The entire OTHBRS was demolished. The book includes chapters and pictures on Concord Township, Doctors/Undertakers (from 1812 up to 2000), Roads/Railroads, Churches, Organizations Mills, and Schools. The Bingham High School Basketball Team was the first in the State of Maine to win6 Gold Balls in arrow. That chapter includes a picture and names of all the players for each of the 6 years and for 3 of those years there were a set of twins on the teams. The chapter on Selectman lists every First, Second and Third Selectman from 1900 to 2005. It includes pictures and a short story of every resident the town dedicated the Town Report to for each year from 1965 (first year it started) to 2002. The book does not include Pleasant Ridge Plantation (except for making Maple Syrup back in early 1900) as there is already a book written by Robert Hunnewell - Pleasant Ridge Plantation -(my father) and already published by Authorhouse. It is a very interesting book for any person who has ever lived or has ancestors who lived in Maine. It has over 250 pictures and 99% of each picture lists the name and where the person is sitting. You could find your ancestor and know more about your ancestor. There are many wonderful poems written by locals in the old days that had they had known or had they have had money could have been published. Those poems are Excellent.
