Field Notes
Located at corner of Burma Rd. and Southford Rd. (Rte. 67). House and barns are vacant and deteriorated in a corridor of increasing commercial development along Rte. 67. Address approximate - unknown whether street address is on Burma or Southford. English bank barn and wagon shed. Built around 1790 by George Boult, builder of the Quaker Farms Church. The activity at his jointer shop here caused the village to be known by the name of "Slapjack." It was later the home of Southford notables Postmaster Jervis Summers (1791-1833) and store keeper Harold Davis.
