I currently live in the house built by Ephraim Ware on Worcester Street (Worcester Turnpike)in Wellesley Hills in 1790. Info that we were given when we moved in said that it was built as a wedding gift for his marriage to Persis Ware. Would love any information you have on Ephraim, Persis or our home.
