Kenelm Winslow Homestead
1645 Kenelm Winslow Homestead in Marshfield MA.
Kenelm Winslow Homestead is settled on a gentle eminence by the sea, near the extremity of a neck of land lying between Green Harbor and South Rivers. This tract of the township was considered the Eden of the region. It was beautified with groves of majestic oaks and graceful walnuts, with the underground void of tangled shrubbery. A few of these groves were standing within the memory of man, but all have now fallen beneath the hand of the woodman.
It would stay with the family for five generations, until their descendants had to flee the country for being loyalists supporters in the Revolutionary War.
