The Sayward Wheeler House
-Built C.1718
"The Sayward-Wheeler House is a historic house museum at 9 Barrett Lane Extension in York Harbor, Maine, USA.
Built c. 1718, it was the home of Jonathan Sayward, a local merchant
and civic leader, who remodeled and furnished the house in the 1760s
according to his own conservative taste.
Sayward participated in the attack on the French fortress at Louisbourg, Nova Scotia, in 1745, served in the Massachusetts legislature, and, despite outspoken Tory views, retained the respect of his neighbors during the Revolution."
