Pierce Manse Saved by Community Efforts in Concord
The Franklin Pierce home in Concord NH was preserved from demolition and opened to the public after a community drive of begging, bake sales, and gifts from descendants and residents. The Pierce Brigade raised funds, moved the house, and furnished the parlor with help from the state and local groups.
