which was located beside the grange hall. The Photo dated 1969

The North Penobscot Community School once located behind
the Highland Grange in North Penobscot was said to be sold
for use as a barn to a local resident. Being in too good
condition for that use, it was then traded to Lloyd Turner
(1st)and his wife Lorraine, for an old shed. Turner Put it on
skids one winter and towed it downhill to the Turner
Homestead lot to be used as a home. The Turner home in later
years was leveled by fire. Lloyd Turner(2nd) aquired the
Turner Homestead property from his father and Built a new
home where he now lives. The Photo, questionably dated in
crayon 1932, was donated by Helen (Flannery)Varnum , N
