Granby Road 0041
Description
An account of the resource
The house on the corner of Granby Road and Water Street, in the Petersen family for many years (owned by Randolph Petersen in 1941). The old Granville Village School used to be located here as well as the village post office and a small store. The house has since been added onto.
The vehicle on the right side of the photo is what used to be called a doodlebug, or "Depression tractor." Farmers would take worn out cars and trucks, strip off the bodies and fenders, shorten the frames, and make a farm tractor out of them. Not the safest thing but looks like a lot of fun! Gary Petersen recalls that he learned to drive on that old tractor in the 1940's.

Granby Road 0041 Post Office and Randy's Confectionery, 1944-2002, Granville, MA.
Description
An account of the resource
Post Office formerly located on Granby Road at the southwest corner of the intersection with Water Street. The present day address would be 41 Granby Road (Route 189). <br /><br />The building was constructed in 1944 by Postmaster Olav Randolph (Randy) Petersen (April 28, 1911 - January 1, 1980) and opened as the Post Office on Monday,October 2, 1944 [date corrected, thanks to Comment from Ross], replacing the post office formerly located at Gibbons Store. <br /><br />It was taken down when a new Post Office was constructed in 2002 at 467 Main Road. <br /><br />Community Remembrances: <br /><br />This item was posted on the Granville FB community forum in March 2019. The following recollections were shared: <br /><br />PAF: The old post office was in front of the Petersens house on 189 just south of Water Street. In grade school I used to shovel the steps and landing before school for $3.00. Mrs. Carpenter or Mary Woodger was the postmaster. <br /><br />DS: When we were kids the post office had a little gift shop in the left side of the building. <br /><br />DB: Randy Petersen really loved the children in Granville. He did a lot of things for them. My grandmother Bess Peebles also worked in the post office for many years and the room on the right had a few booths and we could get ice cream soda or candy there. <br /><br />DZ: It was the first chore I had as a 3 year old. My mother sent me to get our mail (next door to my house). At first Randy handed me our mail and commented most days that I was “full of prunes”. At some time they changed to a combination I had to memorize. A fond memory. <br /><br />JM: I was so sad when it was gone. I think I just got a whiff of the smell in there when I looked at the picture! Randy and Alice.<br /><br />FW: <span>I loved that Post Office and the people that worked there. Years ago while the boys and I were on vacation, John (age 4 or 5) sent a post card to his father, addressed to 'Daddy', Granville, MA. It got delivered.<br /><br />DB: I think the women in this picture might be my grand mother Bess Peebles as it does not look like Alice Petersen the man is Randy Garry's father.<br /><br />JWA: Looks like Randy in the window. We had Box 3.<br /><br />CB: I spent my childhood summers riding my bike to the old post office for my grandmother. Back in the day she would get mail from friends in the morning spend the day responding then I'd speed back at 3:30 to catch the outgoing mail. They were PO Box 1, a little too high up to reach so Betty Carpenter would have the mail waiting for me to grab from her at the counter.</span>

Petersen, Severine "Berthea" (Spetland) By Fireside at Water Street House, Granville
Description
An account of the resource
Photo of Severina "Berthea" (Spetland) Petersen (Mrs. Joe Petersen). Photo taken just before World War 2 at the Petersen home, 22 Water Street, Granville.
Mrs. Petersen was born on 29 Oct 1878 in Norway. In 1895 she came to America, arriving in New York City. The family later came to Granville, living on Old Westfield Road then moving to 22 Water Street in 1919. Her husband Joe worked at the drum shop.
Mrs. Petersen died on 2 May 1970 and is buried in the Silver Street Cemetery.
The picture over the fireplace says, "Home Sweet Home" and is still in the Petersen family. It was carved by Trygve Petersen, Mrs. Petersen's son, around 1929 on the back of a panel from an Armour meat crate. See 2018 photos.
Note on back of photo spells name "Peterson" but correct spelling is "Petersen."
This image was shared on the Granville FB Community Forum on 24 Sept 2018. Thanks to the Petersen family and friends who contributed to the story of this photograph.
