Seaside Grange No. 567 at Corea, MaineEntry/Object ID
2023.10.99Description
The Seaside Grange Hall was built in 1917 by the "Corea Village Improvement Society" which was organized in 1916. They didn't have enough funds to complete the building, so they acquired a mortgage. Local interest in the hall lapsed and the bank foreclosed.
Ernest Woodward, Sr. , a resident of Corea, bought the hall from the bank in 1931. For several years, the "Sea Breeze Hall" was used for public dances, roller skating parties, and other entertainment .
After the Seaside Grange No. 567 was organized in 1939, they first rented the hall, then purchased it.Photograph Details
