[QUOTE="USincognito, post: 73787044, member: 21511"] The town of Ipswich Massachusetts is one of the oldest in the United States. It was founded in 1634 and due to some unique economic circumstances, has more First Period houses than any other town or city in the country. Quite of few of my ancestors were among the first settlers so I was thrilled, but not surprised to see on a drawing of property lines in 1640 that two of my ancestors lived next to each other and two more lived a few plots away. Even more interesting is the two plots that abutted each other 380 years ago still have the same footprint. Attached is 1. Drawing with properties for William Lamson, William Story, John Dane and Daniel Hovey. 2. Google maps satellite image of the same area today.
