Boothe Memorial Park

Located in the Putney section of Stratford, Connecticut, Boothe Memorial Park and Museum encompasses a sprawling 32-acre site. This historic gem, constructed around 1840 and later renovated in 1914, holds the distinction of being reputed as “The Oldest Homestead in America.” The claim stems from the fact that it stands upon the original foundations of a house dating back to 1663, and has remained continuously occupied throughout its rich history.
