- acc_297 3y agoMy grandfather still has a farm in the region and had this to say > Tom knew that building a boiler to power a steam engine was beyond his scope so he wanted Alex to fashion one for him. My dad said he was definitely a different kind. Tom was determined, no doubt. However he made a set of false teeth - they didn’t fit very well and yet he would persist - showing up in town with his mouth bleeding. Our local region, say, within a radius of 25 miles which would have been served by the villages of Lucky Lake, Birsay, Beechy, Dinsmore and Macrorie contained a relatively large number of Finnish settlers.
