[MassHistPres] Bernard Capen House

[Mark Landry]

Some of you may have heard that my company is in the process of  
dismantling the Bernard Capen House in Milton. Dendrochronology has  
dated the house to 1675. It features beautiful chamfered beams,  
raised paneled fireplace walls, and many other architectural  
features.  The house was actually dismantled once before- in 1909 it  
was moved from Dorchester to Milton. They did a wonderful job of  
documentation in 1909 (measured drawings, photos, notes, sketches,  
etc) and faithfully rebuilt it.  We are documenting the house once  
again and storing the parts and components in several trailers.

I'm writing to let folks know that we are looking for a new home for  
this rare and significant house. If you know anyone who might be  
interested in having us re-assemble this house on their property,  
have them contact me.
