Notes |
The Federal Writers' Project described this building as "dilapidated." It was said to have been "constructed about 1792 from three older structures when General Cyrus French came to [town]. French purchased the land from two sons of Robert Potter. The central part of the house, built about 1740, is probably the building mentioned in the deed as then standing on the land. A barn and a shoemaker shop were also specified in the deed. Part of the house is supposed to contain timber from the old jail, built about 1756, which was also purchased by French."
