Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource ca. 1910 Description An account of the resource Sepia postcard from sample book of Herbert Berniss Thrasher (1884-1927), photographer. Titled: 'Summer Time' Worthington, Mass.' From church in distance this appears to be South Worthington. (#23). Thrasher was the son of George M. and Hattie Lyman Thrasher. Guy Thrasher was his brother. The sample book was produced during the 1920s when H. B. Thrasher was living and working in Florida. The images are undated but are probably quite a bit earlier, ca. 1910-1915. The image of the left was scanned form a postcard in the collection of Gary Roy; the one of the right is from the Thrasher sample book. The women were identified as Bessie and Nancy Trow when another copy of the same postcard was posted on social media. Someone had annotated the postcard with the words "Bessie Trow on the load and Nancy pitching in" in pencil. Closeups of the women's faces resemble other photos of Bessie and Nancy Trow.

Date Available Date (often a range) that the resource became or will become available. 2010-08-05 Description An account of the resource Scan only of blue-toned photograph, postally used. On front: 'Old Stone Chimney, Mt. Parnassus, Worthington, Massa.'No publisher. Postmarked Ringville, Aug 12, 1908. To Miss Mabel Barney, Middlefield, Mass. Mt. Parnassus does not appear on any Worthington maps, but it was apparently located on the road heading into what is now Fox Den from "Parker Four Corners," at the intersection of West Street and Almon Johnson roads. The site is at a high point on the right (north) side of the road, about 300 yards in. Barely any evidence of a home site remains. The same chimney appears in the publication The Western Hampshire Highlands Massachusetts, published by the Western Hampshire Board of Trade in 1912. This publication places Mt. Parnassus near West Street, south of Curtis Road, and describes the site as "the windiest spot in town," with panoramic views. The site described above would have had views in all directions when the forests were cleared. Also corroborating the location is that Ben Brown remembers a very large cellar hole at this location in the 1970s. This hole was filled in by a logging company before the state acquired the land. The 1873 map shows no home sites at this location, so the chimney might have been built by the original purchaser of the land, whose name was Partridge, according to Ben Brown.
