The day we moved in I had noticed the 2 little houses about a block away on Franklin that seemed different or special for some reason. It turned out they were the birth places of John and John Quincy Adams. They were fascinating 30 years ago and I really enjoyed finding your photos of them today!

The painted house was John and Abigail's first home thus becoming the birthplace of John Quincy Adams. John's law office would have been in this home as well and the state constitution written here. <BR/>Please visit<BR/>www.nps.gov/adam. There is a photo of both homes with an explanation of both. I would not want to give incorrect info so please double check me.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04888890941580189233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428963123598184.post-91121438159833181032008-05-17T22:06:00.000-04:002008-05-17T22:06:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04888890941580189233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428963123598184.post-15360361178429315872007-09-12T17:28:00.000-04:002007-09-12T17:28:00.000-04:00wow! amazing! it looks so rustic and all, and to t...wow! amazing! it looks so rustic and all, and to think these "matters of great import" took place here...<BR/><BR/><BR/>these black and whites of the last few posts are so wonderfully evocative--I really like themAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428963123598184.post-58377220356759929222007-09-12T09:42:00.000-04:002007-09-12T09:42:00.000-04:00Interesting photo.

The unpainted clapboards is something my grandfather believed was best and when I was in Japan in the early 1950s, all of the houses were weathered and none were painted. They and the temples were ancient but still in good shape.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028428963123598184.post-41981537340091103572007-09-12T08:01:00.000-04:002007-09-12T08:01:00.000-04:00Well, I'll be!
