CFP in the 1930's
(Submitted by Lee Knox)

I found these pictures in my mother’s things (she passed away last month.) This is the cottage of her grandparents, the Riley's, in Common Fence Post area. My mother is 6-years old in the picture marked 1936. The cottage was called "The Sea Swept" as it reportedly was washed out to sea twice but rescued both times.  (Lee Knox)
