  • Notes: 

  • Lydia Gulliver lived and died in the Leonard mansion (built ca. 1670) that was considered the oldest mansion in the country until it was demolished in 1850. The house was known locally as the “House of Seven Gables.” There are a number of legends concerning King Philip's War and the house.
