Explain its associations with local (or state) history. Include uses of the building, and the role(s) the owners/occupants played within the community. From Form B of 1980: “This farmstead with a one and a half story house and a large barn is located on a sloping bank above the north branch of the Manhan River in the southwestern corner of Northampton. The 1831 town map identifies a mill site, Kingsley’s factory, on the river just east of this farm, but doesn’t show the farm during this period, but it is unlikely that this is his house. The house was probably built by William S. Rust, a farmer who first appears in Loudville about 1870. It is still an operating farm today.” BIBLIOGRAPHY and/or REFERENCES Beers, F. W.
