Dear Fellow Listers, I had an uncle who lived on Madden Ave. in Milford....Every once in awhile he would take me in the car and show me areas of interest. At this one time, he took me up WEST Street in Milford. About a mile or two on the right was a street. There were all woods in this area at the time. We took a right turn.Then about another 2 miles on the left,a left turn. There about 1/2 mile down the road was the POOR HOUSE for Milford. He never brought me to close to the house because he said the people were SO POOR many were vagrants and did NOT wear clothes. That particular house changed hands many times through they years. (I think this was COUNTRY SIDE LANE) TODAY they are the MILFORD GERIACTRIC AUTHORITY. They specialize in ELDERY NURSING.

Dear Fellow Listers... It is NOT COUNTRY SIDE LANE the GERIACTRIC AUTHORITY is LOCATED on. It is 1 COUNTRY SIDE DRIVE. There is a COUNTRY SIDE LANE and all of these streets were connected at one time and still are. They have just changed according to what was going on at the time. Actually COUNTRY SIDE LANE was where a GOLF COURSE was and they used part of the GOLF course to make CONDO'S I just looked it up...I should have done it BEFORE I posted to the list.

Maureen - Following your directions, the first street would be Countryside Lane, and the second would be Asylum Street, Milford. Was the farm all the way at the end of the street? According to the map, Asylum seems to come to a dead end, so it's pretty far removed from anything else. Back when the home was operating, it must have been smack in the middle of nowhere. I know there was an town farm in Upton - my friend is 94 and her uncle was the overseer at one time, but I don't know where it was located.
