Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967

Having the town named after the family, the Quincy homestead is quite a spectacular Early American home. Marrying John Hancock only enhanced Dorothy's social standing! The Hancock House was located where the New State House (1798) is in Boston. Using the trees to frame the house is effective for this photo.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
