This is the second house of Edward Devotion located on the north side of Lower Washington St. just east of Pearl St. He originally lived in today’s Coolidge Corner in the well-known “Devotion House” which still stands today as the headquarters of the Brookline Historical Society. It is not known when he moved from the first house but it should be noted that he both married and sold the original house in 1740.
