Show Elizabeth Whitaker's Description of the Interior of the Home East Wing A Large Living Room and Small Kitchen "There was a big living room (and) a rather small kitchen, both facing east, with a large plate glass bay window in the south wall, with an extension so that we could use it as a bed if necessary, or just to sit on and look out. Later I raised the silk worms he hatched in that window." Rock Home Ground Floor A Hallway Running North and South "There was a hallway running north and south the length of the house through the center of the ground floor with a beautiful carved oak door to the outside." Carved Oak Door "The upper half of the door was framed with colored glass squares and the center was plate glass. The glass squares were of blue, red, green, and amber." Large Parlor on the Ground Floor "The west half of the ground floor consisted of a large parlor with a door exactly matching the one on the south, and two windows on the west and two on the south." Large Downstairs Bedroom "Next to this was the large downstairs bedroom ... the master bedroom which was our room." Staircase "In the hall was the entrance to the staircase .... " Upstairs " .... upstairs were two large bedrooms and a nice sewing and work room for me, where I kept my sewing and spinning and weaving utensils and materials. One bedroom was for the boys and one for the girls." |
