Kenneth Fine’s “Anecdotal History of Fillmore” back in print

Read All About It! Fillmore That is…

Kenneth Fine’s “Anecdotal History of Fillmore” is back in print and is available at Patterson’s Hardware, The Treasure Station, Fillmore Historical Museum and Sandi Ward’s Crafts and Things in the railroad car near City Hall. The cost is $20.

Kenneth wrote this in the later years of his life and always enjoyed telling stories and yarns to anyone who would listen. He was unable to get it into print before he died, but it is now ready for the second time for everyone who enjoys good stories about Fillmore and the “good old days.” He worked in the oil fields and knew that Sespe like the back of his hand.

Kennie’s grandfather, Moses Fine, homesteaded most of North Fillmore up to the point on Goodenough Road. With frequent visits at that home, Kennie got a good background on Fillmore and the Sespe.

Did you know the trout limit was 50 fish a day per person? Did you know several of the guys had their own deer camps up Sespe? Did you know Fillmore had a skating rink? For details, read Kennie’s memories of growing up in Fillmore.

This makes a great Father’s Day gift!
