This photo was taken in 1891. William B. Barton wrote that his mother, Mrs. William E. Barton was standing in the door. Her maiden name was Mary A. McCarthy. Sitting on the top steps are William J. Barton and Theresa Jane Barton. The little boy sitting on the lower step was Benny Ellsworth, who died as a child.

Barton property first appears in the 1884 Ipswich village map, apparently the house at 30 Summer Street, under the ownership of J. E. Barton. In the 1910 map this house is shown, belonging to William J. Barton.
