610 Main Street, Portland

Yesterday we featured the c. 1845 house of Capt. Evelyn White in Portland. Next door, at 610 Main Street, is a house he built c. 1859 for his daughter, Arabella (1835-1877), who married Joseph O. Willcox (1833-1922). Joseph served as Justice of the Peace in 1878-1879. The house was owned by a member of the Gildersleeve family in 1927.
