Did not realize you lived in the Webster house! It actually dates to the 1850s. So tragically sad. https://jeffrankin.medium.com/monmouths-newest-park-was-site-of-early-tourist-camp-ed98b747936b

Thank you, Jeff! I updated the dates in this essay to match the ones in your article. Fascinating that the house was already over 100 years old by the time we moved in in 1969! I would wish someone would buy it and salvage it one more time.

David, this is remarkable! I have fewer memories of the house than you do, of course, yet your writing vividly brought some things back to me. Continue writing, as I’d love to be able to jog my memory of even more things from the house at 201 South 9th Street.
