This house was built by "Hy Adams and George Sproule."  The lumber was purchased from Felix Meaghan's.  The finishings were made in Athelstan at the Sash and Door Factory.  The construction was started in 1907 & completed in 1908.  The house was built for Joseph Beaudin & wife Katherine Costello.  Joseph was one of the first French speaking people to settle in Franklin Township. He operated the creamery for his father who lived near St. Chrysostome.  Their son, Gerald, became owner of the home in 1938.
This house, at Franklin, is located on the south side of Route 202 just a little east of the Nichols Cemetery and west of the former Franklin Creamery.
