Moorehouse Bedroom
Of note in the furnishings of this second floor bedroom is the combination campaign chest/washstand, which would make sense for a major in the militia. On the far wall is a particularly nice highboy chest on chest and a nice little candle stand in front of the window.
Although the outside of the house was unpainted, they used a lot of colour in decorating the interior.
ca 1820 - A Connecticut Loyalist, Daniel Moorehouse magistrate, farmer, highway supervisor, gristmill owner and militia major.
