Description and history

The 2+12-story timber-framed house was built in 1798, and is one of Quincy's few well-preserved

Federal style houses. An addition was added to the rear in the late 19th century, and a Greek Revival style porch and door surround were added (the latter replacing an earlier Federal surround). The land the house was built on was in the Glover family for 280 years.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 20, 1989.[1]
