History: Ephram Power, a provincial land surveyor, built the original house circa 1875. Following Power, Edward D. Davison Jr. (the town’s first mayor) owned the house, and next his caretaker, James Bailey purchased the property. It remained in the Bailey family’s possession, as Alfred Bailey owned the property following James Bailey, from 1940-1975. |
