Below is a replica of what the house looks like:
Furniture is attractive.
Everything is functional.
One can imagine what it must have been like to live in those times.
The wallpaper shown below is quite ornate:
We enjoyed the stories about the house, such as how entire sections were added and removed, during its day.
It's quite a huge residence, as so many homes were in that era.
Love the paned windows.
WHAT, IF ANYTHING, DO YOU KNOW ABOUT NATHANIAL HAWTHORNE?

I remember reading about him and now it has left my mind. I do know he wrote the Scarlet Letter. Really kind of sad and showed the times.
So was everyone's house that ornate - were people rich - like did they all have nice houses - or was he just rich??

Nothing, to be honest with you. The rooms remind me of Dr. Quinn's episodes :)
Had to read his books in High School. I loved his writing. I have been to his house before too. I would NOT have wanted to live in those times...I like all the modern furniture and conveniences too much. Nice pictures Susan.
