Myrtle Webb’s diary chronicles the transformation of her home from “the Webb farm” to “Green Gables” in the early-to-mid twentieth century. Images from that time also help tell that story.

What follows is a collection of Webb family snapshots, plus some maps, postcards, and other memorabilia, which document the changes that the family, the house, and the farm experienced.
