It was also the home of a prominent citizen whose long life spanned Malone's growth from a frontier settlement into a prosperous center of the Adirondack North Country.","narrative":"Built in 1830 at 49 Duane Street in Malone, this ashlar stone house sits into a bank above the Salmon River, so its front is two stories while the rear reads as one. The walls are cut and fitted stone two feet thick, with stone slab lintels and sills, fanlights in the gable ends and a standing-seam metal roof. Inside, simple woodwork, paneled window recesses and plain Greek Revival mantels survive, along with a kitchen Dutch oven and pegged timbers. Two enclosed porches and a rear addition are later. Anselm Lincoln arrived in Malone from Massachusetts in 1815, worked in tanning and the boot and shoe trade, and built the house when few buildings stood on the street. His brother Lot was a mason, and the lot was almost a quarry. The house is believed to be the oldest stone house in Franklin County. It was donated to North Country Community College in 1974.","period_of_significance":"1830","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Greek Revival (vernacular)","criteria":[],"status_note":"Form lists the property as occupied and in good condition, owned by North Country Community College after being donated in 1974; a later review sheet says \"now - not in use\".","vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:38.909693-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/75001189.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/75001189/347e34f141-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/75001189/347e34f141-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"OneEagle","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Anslem_Lincoln_House_01.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">OneEagle</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Anslem_Lincoln_House_01.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75317834","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anselm_Lincoln_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4770602"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/franklin-county/lincoln-anselm-house-75001189/"}
