Cornwall
Theodore Ives and Amanda
Rogers House
91 Town St.
North Cornwall
GPS N 41 32 047 / W 73 18 968
House was built in 1824
No oral tradition, but a small door in the room off the front
hallway. Chamber approximately 33 by 36 and 9 feet
high. Door opened in before. They changed it,
made the door smaller, also hinged on the right instead of the
left, door was 30 inches high.
My thoughts, with "Follow the Blooms", Cornwall Bridge to Ives
house, to the Huntsville area.

"I can remember looking behind the chimney at an impossibly
small hidey hole...The house was touted as the second oldest
house
in Cornwall, just behind the Clark House in East Cornwall."
Another source told me it was torn down.
