The Hill House.
The Hill family asserted that Josiah Fox, Sr. Built the Hill House. The exact date when it was built is not known, but the Hill family has said that when the house was purchased by Isaac Hill from Josiah Fox in 1829, that the interior woodwork and moldings were not finished, and that they were completed by Isaac Hill.

It was thought possible that Josiah Fox may have started the house for his son Josiah, Jr., then later found the son did not need it. Josiah Fox Sr. died 8 May 1830, aged 75. His grave is in the Oakland Cemetery, Collinsville (now part of Dracut).

Isaac Hill bought the house and land on Mammoth Road, in Dracut, from Josiah Fox in 1829 and moved to Dracut after the birth of their son, Isaac, Jr. Isaac was at the time suffering from terminal tuberculosis. The Hill family has said that he purchased the house and farm in order that his wife might have a permanent home and means of livelihood near her family, the Cutters of Pelham, New Hampshire. It is said that Isaac, a carpenter, finished the interior of the house before his death in 1830.

Lucinda's brother, John Cutter, came to live in the house to manage the farm for his sister.
