CommentIn 1725 Dr. James Greene built his homestead on lot 17, Div. I, later the Paul Greene residence, and later the William Goddard estate (includes the present Potowomut Golf Club lands.) from "History of Potowomut" by George Lawrence 1977. Mrs. Anne A. D. Ives purchased the Paul Greene Farm from the heirs in 1862. She later sold the Paul Greene House at Potowomut to her husband's nephew, Thomas P. I. Goddard. He remodeled the house and at his death it became the property of his brother, Col Robert H. I. Goddard who enlarged it and called it Thornecliffe. 150 ft southwest of the club house at Potowomut Country Club. Found, registered and recorded by John Sterling in 1998.
