I have to say that 105 River Road looks nothing like it did when the Glidden family lived there from 1956 until 1979. The central chimney had four working fireplaces, and the windows were 9 over 6 all through. It was a beautiful saltbox colonial.

You missed a couple of houses…
The Davis house on Hadley Rd and Heath Homestead on corner of Heath Rd (circa 1750)

The MA Historical Commission does not list any historic houses on either of those roads, but their list is incomplete. Please reply with the street addresses. There is a First Period Davis house on Merrimac Rd in Haverhill but I can’t find a listing for a Heath house at all.
