Summary:
There were six coal companies in New London in the 1920s. The kitchen range and parlor stove kept many from freezing but heating New England homes was dusty and created a good reason for spring cleaning. Carol Kimball rejoiced when central heating was installed because it kept her childhood home warmer and eliminated the mess and bother of coal and wood.
