      <image:title>Early Charlton History - Early Building Construction in Charlton - Possible Mackintire (McIntire) House</image:title>
      <image:caption>This copy of a pen and ink drawing of an early center chimney, two story house was found in the Melvin M. Baker collection of historic material. The name of the artist on the drawing is illegible and it is believed the caption was added by Melvin Baker. Ebenezer McIntire did build the first house in Charlton Center, probably about 1739, it was located on the south end of what is now Charlton Common, it probably faced south with the road passing to the east of it. The house not only served as a residence for the McIntire family but was also a tavern and a Town meeting place. Noted local historian, William O. Hultgren believes the McIntire house would most likely have been a “Cape” style house and this view was conjecture by Melvin Baker. It was also noted in our own archival records that the Ebenezer McIntire house was taken down in 1850 but this cannot be corroborated except for the fact that it is not shown on the inset map for Charlton Center on the 1857 wall map of Worcester County.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This is a sketch of Charlton Center drawn by John Warner Barber about 1830. He would travel through the Commonwealth doing sketches of town centers. This sketch gives us a sense of what Charlton Center looked like at that time, including the meeting house, surrounding homes, and the general arrangement of the village.</image:caption>
