Abstract Marblehead Jr. High Archives Historical Building Survey


In the year 1700, our house hadn't been built. However, the house was standing in the year 1721. The land most likely belonged to Squire Phillip Brimblecomb who owned an estate. Mechanic Street was called Cows Lane and then Brimblecomb Street after it was built. Nineteen Mechanic Street was most likely the second oldest in the immediate area.
