From Wikipedia:

Jonathan Fisher House

The Jonathan Fisher House is a historic house museum at 44 Mines Road in Blue Hill, Maine. The house was built in 1814 by Reverend Jonathan Fisher, the first settled minister of Blue Hill, and is now a museum dedicated to his legacy. Fisher (1768-1847) kept a journal of his life in rural Maine, and published other works, including Scriptural Animals, a work illustrated with woodcuts he created. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969 (as Jonathan Fisher Memorial); it is open seasonally between July and October.
