Mary Allen (who was known as Polly) is one of the five voices in my novel . . .
Her house has been a familiar sight for almost forty years . . .
It's a private residence and the owner was kind enough to let me take pictures of the parlor .
Some of the original wallpaper remains . . .
Front door and stairs . . .
I can't be sure of what has changed since Polly's time but I'll do the best I can with research and let my imagination fill in the gaps
