This house (no longer standing) was already an old place when acquired by Capt. Samuel Ward of Worcester in 1768. In Lancaster, he ran a large mercantile establishment and was a prominent citizen of the town for 59 years. Much later, the dwelling, located on the corner of Main Street and George Hill Road in South Lancaster, was owned by the Hosmer family, who sold the property to Atlantic Union College. A new men's dormitory, Lenheim Hall, was built on the site and dedicated in 1956.
