25 Goddard Ave.
This house, which was torn down after a fire in 1949, was built by Isaac Cook in 1809. In 1827, Cook built for his younger son the well-known “Cook Cottage” right down the hill from this house. Circa 1878 James Lovell Little and his wife, Mary Revere Little, acquired both this house and the cottage. It is not known why but atlases of the time label the main house as the property of Mary R. Little and the cottage as property of James L. little.
