Well Done Mary. History of the railroads both at Farm Pond and the rest of Framingham would be interesting.

I try to do a history piece every few months or so. I’ll add your suggestion to my list. Also, since the railways are turning into rail trails, it is a very relevant history. Thanks for reading!

Great read MK! Be nice to do an article on Civil War Medal of Honor winner, African American Conrad Homan (29th MA Infantry) who is buried at Edwards Cemetary. Ty!

Thanks, Dana. Homan is on my list for Veterans’ Day this year. However, I do not see any evidence he was African American.
