Located on the west side of Main Street near the Nashua River, this home was built in 1785 for Judge John Sprague, who served the town 10 years as a representative, 2 years as a senator, and 3 years as a sheriff. His grandson S.J. Sprague Vose was the last of the family to live in the house. Later, it was purchased and given as a parsonage "fully furnished and equipped" by Col. John E. Thayer, who maintained it for 25 years. In 1933, the year Thayer died, it was bequeathed to the church.
