INVENTORY FORM CONTINUATION SHEET Community: Form No: <br /> MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL CCKIISSION <br /> Office of the Secretary, Boston <br /> Property Name: 6 Muzzey Street <br /> Indicate each item on inventory form which is being continued below. <br /> HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE (Reed House) <br /> Correction: this is not the former Capt. Phelps house. This structure <br /> formerly stood facing Massachusetts Avenue on the corner of Muzzey Street. It <br /> was erected prior to 1841 and was lived in by John Davis in that year, when he <br /> was postmaster. <br /> The Capt. Phelps house was moved from Massachusetts Avenue to a position <br /> behind this house when the block of stores was built now housing Lexington <br /> Theatre, et al. in 1918. <br /> The Reed house (or Davis house) was moved here in 1912. <br /> *In the Lexington Minute Man newspaper, dated December 7, 1888: "The barn <br /> and ell attached to the old Capt. Phelps place, on train Street, was removed <br /> the earlier part of this week." <br /> According to Mrs. Chas. C. Goodwin, Brooks Smith owned this house at one point <br /> in the 1800s. <br /> S. Lawrence Whipple, 1984 <br /> Staple to Inventory form at bottom <br />
