Betsy Elms Havens got this started with her great list featuring the Homes of America’s Founding Fathers and Shauna McDonald Johnson’s recent trip to Boston inspired this Challenge when she claimed four sites as a result of her single trip:

• The site where John Hancock’s house once stood
• John Adams’s birthplace
• The home where John Adams (and later John Quincy Adams) both lived, Peace Field.
• The site where Benjamin Franklin was born

Pictured below, from left to right: The site where John Hancock’s house once stood; John Quincy Adams’s birthplace, not a Signer, though his home is just a stone’s throw from his father’s, who was a Signer; and, Peace Field, where they both lived.
