We invite you to follow the tour through the rooms of the House in the same fashion as our live tours do.

• In this way, the information you are given will build with each successive room.
• In a room, there are a number of different views which can be selected, showing the room from different angles.
• You will also be able to see areas in which the public is not allowed, such as wardrobes, closets, cellars and the attic.
• Many views have a few objects which can be clicked on to see more information. Look to see if the cursor arrow turns into a pointing hand, then select that object to see more detail.
• We have included information about the most intriguing or significant artifacts in the various rooms and areas, but not everything has been included. Many objects are repeated in different rooms and others have no particular historical significance to the Alden family which lived in the house.
• Alden Property: Here we show exterior scenes of the Alden House and other pictures of what was once the Alden family farm.
• Alden Kindred: A brief history of the Alden family association from its assembling in 1901 until today, based on the "Priscilla's Progeny" exhibit in the Kitchen Chamber of the Alden House.

When the other sections are completed, you will see the parts of the Alden story which are not part of the house tour.

• Alden Archaeology: The "First Site" is where John and Priscilla built their first Duxbury home (when the area was still part of Plymouth). It was archaeologically excavated by Ronald Robbins in 1960, and the outline of the old foundation he uncovered is marked today with stakes and rope. There is also a granite marker erected ca. 1880s with a later bronze tablet.
• Architectural History: In this section, our historical architect, Will Gwilliam, will illustrate and explain the evolution of the Alden House over the centuries.
