Fun Facts

Mrs. Fuller donated the home and 85 percent of its contents to the Yarmouth County Historical Society in 1996. The contents of the house included furniture, knick-knacks and other memorabilia. Mrs. Fuller died in 1997 in Hartford, Connecticut, but her gift to Yarmouth will keep her memory alive for many years to come.
