Captain
Grant's Inn
Captain
Grant's Inn was originally built by Captain
William Gonzales Grant in 1754 for his wife
Mercy Adelaide Avery. Grant died at sea, while
Mercy lived into her 80's and the home continued
to house three generations of the Grant Family.
During the Revolutionary War, soldiers used
the home as a Garrison, and during the Civil
War, the home protected runaway slaves. A major
restoration took place from 1994 through 1996.
Today, the Inn stands restored to its original
grandeur and prominence in this national Historic
Village.
