History

edit

The house was built for Priscilla Manning and her fiancé, John L. Sullivan.[3] Sullivan later served as the 49th United States Secretary of the Navy, during 1947–1949. The house was a wedding gift from Manning's maternal grandfather, Frank Pierce Carpenter, founder of the Amoskeag Paper Company.[3]

The house is still owned by the Sullivan family, and contains many of its original furnishings.[3]
