Joanie Wood wrote to the Building Provincetown website on 19 October 2013: “This house was purchased by my great-grandfather Frank Enos in the late 1800s. My grandmother Mary Simmons and her husband Frank inherited the house and lived in it until they died in the 1950s. My family shared the house with them until the ’70s, when just my parents remained. My mom lived there until she had a stroke at the age of 90 and then moved to be closer to me in Orleans. She died this past year at the age of 96.” I replied: “Please accept my thanks for this rich family history and my condolences on the loss of your mother.”
