TRemont. I was born in 1963, and by the time I was learning to dial the phone, the only phone books that still gave any clue about the exchange names were old ones at my grandparents' house. In my hometown at the time, you just had to dial five numbers, and that's what I learned to remember.
my aunt and uncle still have the phone number my grandparents had when I was growing up.

we did not have a phone in our cave, we were just getting use to fire.

The first phone number I learned was CAnal. I don't remember the numbers, but I remember the exchange. Then at the same time we quit using the exchange name, the number changed entirely. We didn't move, and I don't know the reason, but whole town got whole new phone numbers.
My current exchange is WAlnut, but we don't use exchange names when giving phone numbers anymore.

CLearwater 4 (later it was just called 254)
The first phone I recall was in a wooden box mounted to the wall. It had a ringer the customer himself cranked. If you were calling someone on your party line, you simply rang the code, one long, three shorts, another long. Operator was reached by one long ring.
Then later we had desk sets, rotary ringers, clunky models, and one simply removed the receiver to reach "operator"...a la Ernestine. Numbers were three digits, plus an alphabetical letter. 397 J. The initial identified yours as being a party line (sometimes as many as four parties on one line.
Then our "city" number was ATwater ****.
Confusing? Consider the complexities of today's cellular models.
So there you have my telephone history for the first hundred years.
