Thomaston Historical Soc

The Thomaston Historical Society presents its eleventh annual Home For The Holidays Event, featuring the Morton Lermond House, a classic example of Greek Revival architecture built in 1847. The house, believed to have been constructed by either Albert Morton or Charles Lermond, showcases Doric columns, flush board siding, and attractive broad planes reminiscent of Greek temples. The interior boasts cornices and moldings throughout, with a floor plan that suggests it may have been a duplex at one point. Proceeds from the event will go towards maintaining and restoring the Knox Farmhouse Museum, the last remaining original building of General Henry Knox's estate. The Morton Lermond House, located at 48 Green Street in Thomaston, Maine, has a rich history tied to the shipbuilding industry. Joshua A. Morton, who moved to Thomaston in 1826, purchased the land where the house now stands and established the shipbuilding firm of J. and C. C. Morton. Albert Morton, Joshua's son, and Charles Lermond, his brother-in-law, both ship carpenters, are credited with building the impressive Greek Revival style dwelling. The Lermond family owned the house for 124 years, and today it serves as a testament to Thomaston's maritime heritage and architectural legacy.Generated from the website
