In 1840, Capt. Titus Case (1769-1845) erected the house at 144 Cherry Brook Road in Canton. This had previously been the location of the home of Sgt. Daniel Case II, who’d arrived in the 1740s and built the first gristmill in town. Calvin Case also operated a mill, located west of the house, that had a 50-foot water wheel. His descendants used the house as a summer home. A historical case in the Canton Center Congregational Church was given in memory of his daughter, Kate Minerva Marsh (1836-1888). A later owner was Jeremiah Crowley, who made butter in the nearby creamery. The house’s cupola was added after the Civil War.
