Quincy: Adams NHP - John Adams Birthplace

            The John Adams Birthplace, at 133 Franklin Street, is the 2½-story, wood-frame saltbox-style New England home in which Founding Father and second President of the United States, John Adams was born on October 30, 1735.  Adams lived here until 1764, when he married Abigail Smith and moved next door to 141 Franklin Street.  The land on which the house sits was first owned by William Needham, who built a house on the site around 1650.  The present house was probably built around 1681 by Joseph Penniman, and sold to Deacon John Adams, Sr. in 1720.  Upon Deacon's death in 1762, the house passed to his second son, Peter.  The house was occupied from 1810 to 1818 by John Quincy Adams' son, Thomas Boylston Adams.  The Adams family retained ownership through 1940, renting it out and later authorizing its use as a meeting space for the local chapter of  the Daughters of the Revolution before turning it over to the City of Quincy and the Quincy Historical Society.
