Notes
Hough painted three houses for the Tuttle-McElroy family of Rockaway, neighbors and friends of the Motts on Halsey Ave.
This house was built in Powersville (Boonton Township) NJ by the Quaker Adam Miller and is today an important Morris County colonial site. The sign to the left of the entrance indicates that it was built by Adam Miller and his wife Mary Dalrymple Miller in 1767. William Alger bought the house in 1803. Alger was a Revolutionary War soldier and ancestor of Sue Hoagland Tuttle of Rockaway. Sue Tuttle may have commissioned Hough to paint the house as a companion piece to the Millbrook Cooperage that he had already painted.
