Thank you John. I miss my CT roots and historic home in Durham. I attended many fairs on the Guildford and Durham Greens, and was in the Griswold House in 1969 when the astronauts first landed on the moon. 💙

Wow, that’s an amazing memory I’m sure! Thank you for watching the video and commenting. Guilford is a beautiful place, and I love how there is so much open space around the stone building at the end of the walk. You mentioned Durham: I’ve driven through a number of times, but I’m looking forward to getting out of the car and walking through their historic district sometime in the future. Thanks again!

Informative. Missing are the town's Witness Stones which testify to the presence and contributions of the enslaved who helped develop Guilford.

Thank you for viewing and commenting, glad you found it informative. I have read about the Witness Stones and will make it a point to document one or more on a return trip. There is SO MUCH to see in Guilford.

Nice video. My 10th great grandfather was one of the founders. John Parmarley as it is written on the Covenant. My spelling is Parmley .

That’s pretty wild you can trace your roots back to the Guilford founders! Thank you, and thanks for watching and commenting. Guilford is a beautiful historic town, and there’s nothing like the stone Whitfield house. The stone Covenant you referred to is right near the Whitfield house. Definitely a spot worth visiting in Connecticut!
