"To remember as you pass by." Centerville is now a residential village, with no more business ven- tures than the needs of its people daily . require. But in past time thriving businesses have been lo- cated within its limits. Erase for a moment the distin- guished residences of Mr. Jones and Mrs. Quinn which decorate South Main Street and see in their place a busy ship yard , with piles of lumber and necessary equipment and a boat or two at the water 's edge, under construction. Here, ac- cording to the memory of descend- ants of these men, were located the building operations of James Cros- by, Jonathan Kelley and Samuel Crosby. Here, according to the Old Home Week Book , were construct- ed some 29 sizeable boats, with the names of those for whom they were built and this was between 1824 and about IStiO. The book shows the picture of a handsome sloop, the "Nelson Harvey," which was built for one Nelson Bearse. The view was taken in RockpOrt , Me., from which port it was then transporting granite. Mr. Kelley built himself a sub- stantial residence, which is now the home of the Hallett family and of Mr. and Mrs . Paul Doiron. Suggested reading for this week might be this very same Old Home Week Book of which there should be more copies in the hands of the village.
