Ezekiel Phelps House
The Ezekiel Phelps House is a historic house at 38 Holcomb Street in East Granby, Connecticut. It was built in 1744 by Joseph Phelps for his son Ezekiel, when the area was still part of Simsbury.
Phelps was the great-great grandson of William Phelps, one of the first colonists of Windsor, which was one of the first English settlements in Connecticut.〔 While serving in the militia during the Revolutionary War, one encampment was so close to the British that Phelps is reported to have said, "Shoot Straight: shoot to kill, not maim."〔 Ezekiel served as a lieutenant in the Simsbury militia, and held a number of minor offices in town.〔
The house was built in 1744 for Ezekiel, by his father Joseph.〔 It is a 2-1/2 story building with a chimney in the center of the building, typical of construction of that era. The front doorframe is in the Federal style. The entrance way, and panelled doors were not constructed for this house, but taken from a house in Litchfield.〔
