This is a view of the old house at 12 Bridge St, Greewich, NY, from the Bridge Street side. The house was razed several years ago and replaced by a modern home. This historical old house was built by Dr. Hiram Corliss. He was a native of Easton, NY, located across the Battenkill from the house. He maintained a busy medical practice on Main Street, Greenwich, for many years. His son, George Corliss was the inventor of the Corliss steam engine. The house was later owned by W.N. Sprague, who may have had roots to Francis Sprague of Plymouth Colony, arriving on the Ship Anne, 1623. It was later owned by the White family.
