William Henry Clough, b. Oct 15, 1823; m. Oct 15, 1852, Laura Porter Glines. He was employed on the railroad some years as engineer. After his father’s death he bought the home from his brother Warren and remained a prosperous farmer until death, July 1, 1895. This place remained until recently in the possession of Mrs. Clough and in the name for more than 100 years- one of the most beautiful places in New Hampshire.
The immense elm tree in front of the home was set out in 1812 and the others about 1850.
Mr. and Mrs. Clough were people of artistic tastes and their home abounded in beautiful and rare furnishings. Mr. Clough represented the town in the Legislature in 1886 and served on the committee on agriculture. Mrs. Clough still resides in town.
