Looking at rear of the house toward Newton St., Lagrange St. is to the left. This house stood roughly where today’s 648 Newton St. is located, a little east of LaGrange St. An approximate timeline is:

• House built in the late 1600s by Vincent Druce, later assumed by his nephew, Obadiah Druce. Then passed to the family of Ebenezer Crafts
• 1859: Francis Parkman Denny, Sr. moves into the house
• 1860: Denny marries Emily Parker Groom
• 1871: Denny moves into a new house up the hill. Charles R. Dow, Denny’s farmer, takes over the Newton St. house
• 1872: Denny dies. Wife and family remain in the house on the hill
• Circa 1890: Charles R. Dow changes primary house to Newton St. at Grove St.
• Circa 1898: the land owned by Denny is purchased by investors and changed to a subdivision of house lots. Wolcott Rd. created.
• Circa 1902: House torn down
