The home was originally built by Captain John Turner and was in his family for three generations.In 1908 Caroline Emmerton purchased the home to act as both a house museum and a Settlement House. The home was restored to a 1720 interpretation by Joseph Chandler. Four gables had been removed over the years and were added back, along with the addition of a secret staircase.A full transcript can be found here: https://someonelivedhere.com/houseofthesevengables/ (https://someonelivedhere.com/houseofthesevengables/)Thank you to The House of the Seven Gables, Senior Historic Interpreter and Lead Researcher David Moffat, and Community Engagement Director Julie Arrison-Bishop.
