For those of you who aren't familiar with Rehoboth, Perryville Dam is just around the corner from where we lived on Homestead Ave. I had never read this sign that I passed every day on my way to work until last year.The Perry family operated a saw-grist mill for 200 years. Talk about longevity in a family business! Not only that, but Deacon Carpenter was one of the deacons in town. The town museum is called Carpenter Museum. I wonder if it's named after him and his family.

What a neat sign...only in New England!
