Built In 1647, The Red House In Marshfield, Massachusetts, Was The Home Of One Family For Eight Generations. The Will Of Walter Hatch, The Original Owner And Builder, Hung On The Living Room Wall And Warned That Red House Was To Be Passed Down Forever From Generation To Generation To The World's End Never To Be Sold Or Mortgaged From My Children And Grandchildren Forever.
