Etna- Little Town Little Info
For those of you that have ever been to Etna you know that it’s a very small town and doesn’t have very many businesses at all and most of the ones we do have not many people know about like family’s yarns and lighthouse leather I had never heard of them and Etna has a small population there’s about 1,000 people and Etna isn’t really known for anything other than a bunch of rednecks
Etna Wasn’t always called Etna in 1820 it became Etna the 156th town in Maine and before that in 1807 it was called Crosbytown because it was a township (4R2 NWP) owned by General John Crosby from Hampden the first people to settle here were Dr. Benj. Friend, Phineas Friend, James Harding, Dennis and Reuben Deimett, and Bela, Asa and Calvin Sylvester. (“History of Etna Maine”). Then later in 1826 Etna parted off some land and formed Plymouth the later in 1866 in again parted off into Carmel and Etna was the last town to be made before Maine became Maine (Maine Local Government).
You might not really think it was that long ago but phones haven’t been out forever here in Etna we didn’t get phones until 1981 and they weren’t like they are now they were party lines and I had never heard of this before but people would share the same phone line and you would have to listen to how many times the phone rang and that would depend on who the call was for like it would ring 2 times or 4 times and anyone could pick it up so if you had nosy neighbor’s then you had to be careful what you said the after that they had the switchboard where you cranked the phone and said operator, operator and the operator would come on the line then you would tell them who you wanted to talk to and they would plug you in and that was how the phone worked then they got the one where you had to turn the dial because they hadn’t come out with the push buttons yet so some of the technology has changed within the last twenty of thirty years (Reynolds).
They’re hasn’t always been a interstate In Maine and there never was before the 50’s the part of the interstate that goes through Etna was made in the late 50’s and my Grampie helped work on it (Reynolds).
There isn’t very many big businesses in Etna there is a couple though there is lighthouse leather began in 1998 there is 2 employees, Bucks Nursery began in 1988 and has 5 employees, Conant’s apple orchard started in 1998 and there is 4 employees family yarns was started 1998 and 21 people work there Ken Gould well drilling began in 1973 he is self employed Etna Store started in 2001 and has 7 employees, hill view mini barns started in 1999 and has 6 employees, the Etna fire department began in 1877, Quintal Heating him and his brother,

World War 2
hitler got the power because when there was votings hitler had some nazis there watching the people vote and if they didn't vote for him they would follow them out and then they beat them up
they didn't rise against him because he was in power because they were afraid of him because he brought the people to consentration camps where e would some o them to the death literally and there were barley fed or watered
in germany in that time in history times were bad and the nazis were the nationalist/socialist group
