  • Tremont, Bernard
"Ida Miriam (Lewis) Dix (1869-1956) was a great-granddaughter-in-law to William Dix Jr. (1776-1814). Ida Miriam Lewis was born on January 29, 1869 to Stephen A. Lewis and Mary J. (Comeau) Lewis in Waterford, Nova Scotia. Ida came to Tremont in 1884 when she was 15. When she was 18 she married Hiram A. Dix Jr. (1861-1947) a fisherman, son of Hiram A. Dix and Emily Jane (Norwood) Dix, on March 15, 1887 in Tremont, Maine. In 1895 the Dix family acquired their house in Bernard, Maine. Hiram and Ida moved to Portland in 1918 and stayed there until 1950 when they came back home to “Dix Cottage” in Bernard. They had come there for summer vacations while they lived in Portland. Hiram fished out of Portland, probably on a trawler, for all his working life. Ida Miriam (Lewis) Dix died on July 12, 1956 at the hospital in Bar Harbor, Maine."

  • 224 Tremont Road
John Melbourne Rich took the design for his new house in Tremont from Design 24 in the 1888 version of Palliser's "New Cottage Homes and Details." The Pallisers showed two versions of Design 24. One, a modest house without a tower, and one, a showpiece with tower that could be built for a "cost of $1,700." For this amount one received, "plans, elevations, details and perspective view of a comfortable, convenient cottage home of six rooms, with tower which is designed to command a view of the surrounding country where erected." John Melbourne Rich chose the showy tower version with which to command a view of Tremont. John tore the top story of the three-story tower off when he found that the chimney smoked. This view of the house shows the two-story tower.

The house was built by John "Talking John" Melbourne Rich, the first of his three houses. John owed his Uncle Jonathan Rich (1836-1907) a sum of money, so he swapped this Tremont house for Jonathan's older less valuable Richtown house. Emily (Rich) Trask (1884-1981), John Melbourne Rich's daughter, said in a 1975 interview that she was born in the house, "in that back bedroom up there… That was a big place. It was different from these days…it had a piazza clean around it and round the front. Father was great on building big places but he got in debt so much that he had to give up and go over to Richville [Richtown] and live." The main house, minus barn and ell, still exists in 2016, although covered in green asbestos shingles. The house was originally painted a cream color with brown trim. It sits back from the road just before the Tremont Congregational Church.
