This photo was shared on the Granville-Tolland Facebook community page in April 2021,. The following memories were shared:

JWA: "Went here after kindergarten in 1958 and spent the afternoon with Bertha Hunt--Stub's mother. We called her Antie Birthday. My father would come for lunch from the box shop. I remember bringing firewood in for her and getting attacked by the rooster. He was not around the next day. I believe she cooked on a woodstove year round back then."

TF: "Many great memories here on the farm I was lucky to grow up surrounded by family! I got to milk cows back in the day before they were machines to do it!! Aunt Dolly, Uncle Stub, Aunt Ethel and Uncle Dick always were there!! The lesson I learned.. from horse back riding, gardening, and how to work hard."
