It was 100 years ago today that Cecil Russell began his long ownership and operation of Russell's Store. He had purchased the store from his cousin, Andrew T. Doig, in November 1918. Over the almost ten years of this blog, I have written about the store and the Russell family several times.
Here's are three entries specific to the store and family:
SUNDAY, JUNE 14, 2009, Russell's Store - one of my earliest entries about the store - https://bovinanyhistory.blogspot.com/2009/06/russells-store.html
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2012, Russell's Store, Thanksgiving 1978 - this entry was mainly photographs taken forty years ago by Steve Pelletier - https://bovinanyhistory.blogspot.com/2012/11/russells-store-thanksgiving-1978.html
THURSDAY, MAY 2, 2013, Russell's General Store Fifty Years Ago and Beyond- this entry shared an article from the Walton Reporter from May 1963 about Russell's - https://bovinanyhistory.blogspot.com/2013/05/russells-general-store-fifty-years-ago.html

ReplyDeleteCecil was a 1st cousin once removed of Margaret Bryce Russell McKee, who I think lived in your house. You should contact Cindy Vojnovic for more information on this particular Russell family: Cindy.vojnovic@gmail.com. She's related to the family that has your house.
