Barrett House: a federal manse

Article Abstract:

The size and classical proportion of Barrett House in Ipswich, NH, may be attributed to the fact that it was the product of a challenge between the fathers of Charles Barrett, Jr, and Martha Minot, then newly married. The magnificent house was converted into a museum in 1948 by the society.
