Talk:John Randall House

The 1690 date needs citation. The nomination form cited earlier in the article describes the house as "early 18th century" "with some parts likely dating back to the 17th century." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Old houses (talkcontribs) 17:41, 27 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Here's a source for an earlier 1685 date: [1] Historic Buildings of Connecticut website retrieved on: 2021-04-16.Tomticker5 (talk) 15:41, 16 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
That source is itself unsourced. There are no known first period features in this house, so likely a 1730+ structure.Old houses (talk) 20:22, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

And why is this the "John" Randall House? Not a famous person, so it's not really appropriate to name a house just for the male.Old houses (talk) 20:28, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
