  • 2 page paper on the granite of Pelham, NH and some of the locations where it was used; donor conducted research at LHC with the Essex Company Collection.

  • Forged iron plug and feather devices that were more than likely used to split the granite from those quarries according to the donor.  They were found in a house built in the 1840's very near the quarries referenced. Donor believes that the house they were found in was a quarryman’s/worker’s house.
