E-4-11

Little is known about this place or Field himself. He may have come from Mansfield, Massachusetts. It was apparently settled after the departure of John Stroud (about 1777) and occupied until shortly after the death of James Field in about 1789.  His widow, Mary, appears in the 1790 census of Packersfield. The only record we have is the sale out of James Field’s estate in 1793. Subsequent owners did not live on the place.
