About 1885 Lane Farm Purchase

RESIDENCE OF EMERY ORSON LANE:  Maine, Kennebec, Fayette.

“He returned to Maine, and in Jun 1887, purchased a farm, known as the Doctor Moses French Farm, Lot #47, North Fayette.” 

SOURCE:  Lane, Frank C. & Lane, Roger N., Ancestry and Descendants of James Lane of Hingham, Massachusetts, 1966, 32-33.

It is believed that when Emery Orson Lane bought the French farm, he intended to marry the daughter of Moses French. However this young woman either died, or married another man, and the marriage never took place.
