Black and white photograph of Fred M. Ludden and Alice Higgins' house. Fred (b. July 23rd, 1841, Williamsburg, d. March 19th, 1905) and Alice (b. June 5th, 1850) married on November 26th, 1874 and lived in Westhampton, then Chesterfield, then Northampton before moving to Indian Hollow in 1880. As a child, Fred lived in Conway, then in Sutherland (Sunderland?), then moved to Loda, IL. when he was thirteen years old. According to Rev. Moody, he enlisted in 'Co. K, 76th Illinois Regiment' and served for three years before returning east in 1873. The Ludden's purchased the house, built by Joseph Tower, from Jeremiah Brown. Also according to Moody, Stephen Taylor, Barnabas Cole, and Seth Cole had lived in the house with the latter 'probably settled here first.' And, Jonathan Lilly and Elijah Tilden lived nearby, on the east side of the road. In 1905, the house was on lot 11. Featured in The South Worthington Parish by Rev. George Reed Moody (1905), page 54, plate II, #3.
