Peter Nolan From: Albuquerque, NM Website: E-mail: pnolan2@comcast.net	I lived in Cochituate from 1952 to 1966, attending grades 1 through 8, but graduating from the Jesuit High School in Concord in 1966. This is a wonderful project! I hope it will be kept alive, so I can contribute to it. I am a writer, and started a semi-autobiographical novel many years agao about Cochitutate. My career writing other things got in the way, but I do plan to revisit that musty old manuscript when I retire in a few years. I was eight when the Mansion Inn burned down, so I remember it clearly, and the neighborhood kids going up there with shovels a few years later. I also remember the fire on Pemberton Road, because that was my family's old house burning down--we'd moved a few years earlier. I was a Lake Cochituate brat from say 1957 through 1962. When my mother, Grace Adams, died in 2000, my younger brother bought the house. He sold it last year, so I've been back many times, and seen the change. I guess it doesn't strike me as much as others, because my old neighborhood hadn't changed that much over the years, and I wasn't in touch with the rest of the town. Please contact me if you'd like more info. Added: October 27, 2005

Mary Lee Genay From: Tacoma, WW Website: E-mail:	I lived in Wayland from 1950 to 1990. It was a great place to grow up in. My neighborhood on Davelin Road functioned like a family. School was terrific, you were expected to participate, do your assignments but without the pressure we see today. It was up to you to do A work or B or C work. Help was readily available from teachers. We played tricks or jokes on them. People were accepted for who you were. I never felt pressured to wear certain clothes, be a part of a group, or to do anything. My friends and I went bowling in Sudbury, to Friendly's for ice cream, the Villa for pizza, to the movie at Shoppers World, or to each others' houses and played cards or board games. There were dances run by the school that were fun. I can remember when we were seniors and went to Harvard Square to the coffee houses to listen to folk music, some boys in our class were concerned about us going into Cambridge. They didn't think it was a safe thing to do- tough city hoods. We told them we were careful, and that we enjoyed it. Wayland was a great place and I was happy to have my own daughter grow up there. Class of 61. Added: August 25, 2005

Bill Clarke From: Norwich, CT Website: E-mail:	I was a member of Wayland High School Class of 1961. We were the first class to graduate from the current high school. Growing up in Wayland during the 1950's and early 1960's was an experience one would never forget. Even though I was young, life was a lot simpler in Wayland during the Eisenhower years. I remember the great sports teams that represented our school and the social life revolving around school events. This wonderful web site has done much to rekindle those fond memories of a time long gone. Added: August 24, 2005

I was in the class of l951 and attended Colorado State University after graduating. I have made my home in Colorado for most of my life.
