Believe it or not this house came from an Eaton’s Catalogue. In 1915, Napoleon Foubert would have sent out an order to have everything delivered so that he could build his new home. Who would have thought? This house was originally located on Foubert Street in Cumberland Village. It was believed to have been a replacement house for the original homestead, owned by the pioneer settlers Foubert who made their fortune setting up one of the first trading posts. The Foubert Family were quite well off. They were the lucky ones who had electricity, which also meant that they had things that other families living in the rural area would have never even thought of, things such as; an electric stove, electric washing machine, refrigerator and telephone. Can you imagine that these items which we take for granted today were such a luxury during the depression? Along with all their fancy appliances they also would have had a substantial amount of other things to flaunt their riches such as expensive china and even a pet. So let’s take a step inside the kitchen and the living room and learn some more about this house!
