Ashlawn

Ashlawn, also called the Joshua Perkins House, is a two-story, central-hall frame farmhouse dating from the 18th century in Sprague, Connecticut.
The house's namesake is its first owner, Joshua Perkins, a farmer and son of the prominent Captain Matthew Perkins, a farmer and founding member of the Hanover Society. Ashlawn's main house has a five-bay front facade with pilasters supporting broken-base pediments. The inside has well-documented woodwork for its moldings and wainscotting. The house has integrated an older structure, likely a central-chimney structure built in the second quarter of the 18th century, as an ell.
In 2002, the house was maintained by Ruth Rosiene, a descendant of the Perkins. Ashlawn is listed under the National Register of Historic Places as an example of Georgian architecture and locally important for its connection with the Perkins family. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 4, 1979.
== History ==
The land upon which Ashlawn stands was originally part of a parcel purchased by Joshua Perkins' grandfather Joseph Perkins and great-great uncle Jacob Perkins. The town of Lisbon, Connecticut, was originally known as Newent, the name believed to derive from the Perkins' place in Gloucestershire, England. Joseph Perkins' father, Captain Matthew Perkins, was a prominent farmer and founder of the Hanover Society in 1761. Matthew Perkins held approximately in Hanover and owned three slaves as part of his assets; he died in 1773. Joshua Perkins is believed to have deeded the land. Joshua Perkins, the eldest son of Matthew Perkins, was born in 1740. A farmer and a selectman, he served in 1786 and 1787 before going to serve in the Connecticut state legislature in 1789 and again in 1801. In 1825, he deeded , containing the house, to his son Charles Perkins. Joshua Perkins died in 1833, living to be 93.〔
