Re: 1. History of the old house located behind the grocery store in New London. Re: 2. Brick building with name MOTTER in New London. Re: 3. Location of Gregory House in terms of present day New London. For Maureen, Myrna and Nancy. Perhaps I should have mentioned earlier, but since I live in Maryland about 400 or so miles from New London Twp, which I've never visited, I must admit to distance-impairment which gives me no first hand knowlege of the past and current structures, streets and general layout of New London. All; I know is what I read in our Huron County, Ohio publications. Re item 1. I'm afraid I have no idea regarding the "old house located behind the grocery store in New London." Re item 3. Our History of the Fire Lands describes the Gregory House as being built on the northeast corner of Rochester and Clarksfield Streets in New London in 1873. I find this intersection in our Atlases of 1873 and 1891 for New London, not far from where the C.C.C. & I. RR crosses Clarksfield Street. Our Huron County, Ohio, A Pictorial History, shows a picture of the west wall of the Gregory House being built facing North Main Street. Possibly, one or more of these earlier named streets was renamed, but again, I don't know what's currently standing at this location. Re item 2. In our Picturesque Huron County, Ohio, 1896, there is a picture of the residence of a Martin Motter in New London, page 194. It is a large two-story brick building. The caption reads: "Residence of M(artin) Motter, Rochester Street, New London. (A smaller version of this same picture is seen on page 69 with the caption: "Residence of Martin Motter, New London.") Since copyright restrictions do not apply here, I'll send you (Myrna) a private copy of the residence seen on page 194 as an attachment to a follow up email. You can then compare with your picture of the brick building that contains the name "Motter." In our Atlas of 1873, Huron County, Ohio, Martin Motter is listed in the business directory as: "Martin Motter, Proprieter of St. James Hotel, opposite depot (of the C.C.C.& I. RR.). This house is large and newly furnished. Good sample rooms on first floor." The St. James Hotel must have ben located fairly close to the Gregory House since the picture in our Huron County, Ohio Pictorial History, showing workmen working on the construction of the Gregory House in 1873, contains as part of the caption: :The large building on the right is the old St. James Hotel, which was built in 1871." In our Atlas of 1891, Huron County, Ohio, Martin Motter is shown owning a plot of land (#443) in New London, facing Rochester Street, with a large tract of land behind this plot and plots 444-451. There are 17 Motters listed in the index for the Huron County, Ohio Cemetery Inscriptions book, including Martin Motter. Details for the latter: Grove Street Cemetery, New London Township. Page 433. Section 2-- Row 23. 5 Martin Motter 1846-1897. 6 Dollie Motter, d/o M. & L. Motter, d. (10) June1888 age 1(0)m 24d. Hope some of this may help. Happy Easter to all. Regards, Ken Shute
