Lynn Fahy, from the Ellington Historical Society says:

"This is a photo taken in the 1930s of Horace Warner's house on Somers Road. According to town records, it was built in 1860. The house is now the one at 319 Somers Rd., south of the intersection with Meadowbrook and Hopkins Road. It doesn't look anything like this now."
