EFFINGHAM — Join the Effingham Historical Society for a guided tour of the Captain Enoch Remick House, the "crown jewel" of the Remick Country Doctor Museum and Farm, on Friday, July 17, at 6:30 p.m. to learn more about the history of this impressive home and its inhabitants, the Remick family.
Located in Tamworth on Great Hill Road, the house was built in 1808 in a Federal architectural style, but later additions resulted in Greek Revival and Italianate influences. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and passed down through six generations of Remicks, it was occupied by members of the family from 1808 to 1993, the year Dr. Edwin C. Remick passed away. It contains the antique furnishings of the Remick family, an antique toy collection and 19th-century murals attributed to the American painter John Avery, in addition to the original medical office and medicine room, used by both Dr. Remicks, which are also preserved in the home.
