In 1906 the house was sold to Rev.Herman DeForest, a retired Congregational pastor who had <br /> previously worked in Detroit, Westboro and Taunton. Rev. DeForest lived here until at least 1913. <br /> About 1918 the house was purchased by Arthur Howe. He was employed as a financial manager of a dry goods store and <br /> lived here with his wife Marion and two daughters. The Howe family continued to own the house until 1990 when <br /> Elizabeth Howe sold it to Robert Martuza. <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHY: <br /> Lexington Directories,various dates. <br /> Lexington Minute-Man,February 2, 1894; June 1, 1894; October 13, 1906. <br /> Middlesex County Register of Deeds, Cambridge,Mass. <br /> U.S. Census Records, 1900-1930. <br /> Supplement prepared by: <br /> Lisa Mausolf <br /> June 2009 <br />
