Eleazer Arnold Home Erected in 1687

Eleazer Arnold House, Great Road, Saylesville, Providence County, Rhode Island was erected in 1687.  The photographs were taken in 1941. No wonder this type of house is called a "stone ender."  Follow the link below to view more images of the home.  Eleazer is a direct line in my family tree, being from the second generation in America, and my seventh great grandfather.

Significance: This post-Medieval framed timber and clapboard farmhouse is a fine example of a stone-ender house, a local form of domestic structure in which the chimneys of the hall and kitchen are combined on one end to form a stone wall. In this instance the chimney stack above the gabled roof is of brick, one of the most elaborate in New England. Erected in 1687, the original structure was enlarged in the 18th century. (NHL, 1968)
