Lonny Willard the Village Photographer
A few years ago a neighbor lent me a copy of the New England Magazine March 1900 edition which had an article about New Ipswich. I had the foresight to scan it before returning. I noted a reference to Leonard R. Willard, the village photographer who was alive when the magazine was published. Chickens might have been his most profitable pursuit, but I admire his art of photography.
