Edward A. Huebener Brick Collection no. 6A

No. 5222 Painting of the Ebenezer Withington House, Glover’s Corner, on the face of a brick from the house.

Edward A. Huebener, a former Board member of the Dorchester Historical Society, was a collector of materials relating to Dorchester history including a very large collection of graphic materials, including prints and photographs, now owned by the Society. His very own contribution to this group of materials was the idea of taking a brick from a house that had been demolished and asking a local illustrator to paint a picture of the house upon the brick. The painted bricks may be viewed at the Dorchester Historical Society.

The Historical Sketch of the Union Lodge p. 12 states that this house was the home of Ebenezer Withington, 3rd.

This Ebenezer Withington was the first Master of the Masonic fraternity called the Union Lodge when it was founded in 1796.
