Becoming a Middle Class Home
The above portion of the 1903 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map reveals many of the changes which George Howlett made to the Burton House during his ownership from 1861-1892. The original one-half acre lot created by Hiram Stone in 1854 (outlined in green) was subdivided by Howlett into the five lots and alley shown on this map. In addition, changes in the house itself (circled in red)--including removal of the south wing, and relocation of and additions to the west wing, are observable.
