Synopsis

The Many Lives of Cathouse Farm/Tales of a Rural Brothel is the culmination of a decade of research into the 250-year history about the farm where the author has lived since 2000. The book contains historical facts and poetic musings about many of the inhabitants who have lived on the farm from 1770 to present. The small farmhouse is the original cape dwelling built in 1770 by two Revolutionary War soldiers from the Weeks Family and farmed by four subsequent generations. During the Prohibition era, the farmhouse was maintained as part of a rural brothel that continued to operate until the late 1940's. Presently Cathouse Farm is also home to sheep, chickens, dogs, and of course, many cats.
