- The web site is a great idea. What would be a better way to involve more merchants? I think it's an untapped resource.

- to all those loving there brand new, gigantic home built over a now dstroyed smaller, quaint new england home: why does bigger mean better when the taxes in this town keep going up, forcing my parents to move out of MY town. To the youth : Don't let those with power on their minds keep you from having a good time. ( suprise , suprise, we can party and have peaceful minds!)

- DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE
ST.JERMIAH'S CATHOLIC
CHURH IS?
I know that this church(if it still exists) is unlisted. The church is found somewhere in Framingham. All I would like to do is see the famous Carillon? Is that too much to ask for? I don't see the big deal about having it unlisted. Afterall, everyone knows where Celine Dion got married.
So if you know where this place is please e-mail me.
I do not mean to infringe on the church's privacy by writing this.

- Postscript--St.
Jermiah Catholic Church
Framingham -
Toronto
By the way...Does anyone know where St.Jermiah's Catholic Church in Framingham is?
I know that this church(if it exists) is unlisted to protect its privacy. However, I am a practising Catholic and all I would like to do is see the famous Carillon play at this church.
I don't see what the big deal about protecting the privacy of this church, afterall, everyone knows where Celine Dion got married.
So if anyone knows, where this church is I would appreciate it if you could e-mail me. You don't have to worry about revealing the secret of its location. I am a respectful, trustworthy person.

- I haven't looked at it yet, but I plan to be in Boston the third week in Oct and I wish to find Needham. My great-greatgrandfather was born and grew up in Needham. His name is Lemuel Lyon, and he was a hatmaker. He is said to have made Rosemary Pond, then it was called Lyon's Pond. I would like to see it. Thank you.

- Nice site...what I am
trying to find is a copy
of picture taken by the
Boston Globe of my great
grandfather Harold
Warren. He set a world
record in Cricket while
playing for the Needham
Heights Cricket team back
in 1909 I believe. I
noticed you have a sports
memorabilia room at your
location - does it by any
chance include the early
1900's Championship
Cricket Team? Any help
would be appreciated.
Thank you!
