Are they Still Standing? Where?

The Morton House
"House built by Lt. John Plimpton 1786.  'The Morton House'.  Lorenzo Morton married the grand-daughter of Lt. John Plimpton.  Picture taken May 8, 1938"--written on the back of the photograph by Winifred Tillyer.







The David Fiske House
"House built by David Fiske in 1786.  Picture taken May 8, 1938" -- on back of photograph.












Are these houses still with us?  If so, do you know where they are?

  2. The David Fiske house is the Inn at the top of Fiske Hill that used to be owned by the Publick House, and the Brooks paper mentions that the Brooks family owned this house for many years.
