Built in 1808 for General Martin Kellogg on Willard Avenue in Newington, the Kellogg-Eddy House was the home of an affluent farming family. A Colonial Revival wing was added in 1928. Kellogg was a descendant of Captain Martin Kellogg, who was one of the captives taken at Deerfield in 1704. He later taught Indian boys at Isaac Hollis’ School. He died after settling in Newington and a modern Middle School in town is named for him. Today the house is open as a historical museum run by the Newington Historical Society & Trust and can be rented for events.
