View showing the former wood-frame residence of Captain Benjamin Loxley built circa 1759. Loxley was a master-builder and architect during the 18th Century. He is also known for collaborating with Ben Franklin on his electrical experiments. In the legend of the kite and key, some say the key belonged to Loxley possibly at an earlier residence.
