I thought you might be interested to know that the cornerstone on the brick house was dated 1811. My family owned the house from the early 1940s until about 1958, so I grew up there.

I believe the small wood frame house next to it that was attached to several garages was built in 1798, but my memory is a little fuzzy on that one.Patricia Rowe Stonenoreply@blogger.com
