    3. Thank you. I wish I had the exact address of the house that faced Longmeadow Street. There were several on the property. I believe that particular one may have been of historical interest. It was sold by family members (probably during WW II) who lived elsewhere on the property, and later sold to Baypath College for it's athletic programs. I appreciate the look-up.
