they built our house back in the late 50's and apparently built a lot in the Cinnaminson Nj area. Anyone ever hear of them or can fill me in on them?

Thought you were talking about the rock band.

LOL.. no, Moorestown. Not the rock band..
I was speaking with a Cinnaminson historian today and she told that who built our homes.. I have never heard of them.
Bill- did you realize off of 130 on Andover there once was a working fountain that was at the entrance to our development? Thats where the fountain farms name came from.. it was an island in the middle of the road.. and our home was one of the original sample homes.. Thats why its loaded up with all the options like basement, douglass fur construction and original ac.. pretty cool

I knew about the Fountain.

I figure my house was the dumping ground for all the debris since it's nearly impossible to dig a hole without hitting some sort of rock LOL.

I think the guy a few houses down from me has the blueprint for his house, same as ours, it was called the Tiffany model or something like that

excellent! How did he get the prints?? Next time you see him ask him if I can get them to make copies for us! Ill even pay him a few $ .

I'm not sure how he got them, but I think I remember him mentioning it. It may have been the Tara model, I can't remember. It was definitely a woman's name, beginning with a T

Same with mine! We put a fence in a few years ago with a gas powered auger - we had to replace the drill bits at the end of each day because of all the rock and debris once you got 3 inches in!

rocky areas usually give you high radon numbers. Ours was very low. Have you guys tested yours?
