Using a variety of sources, special thanks to newportrestoration.org, newporthistorical.org, redwoodlibrary.org, and greatswamppress.com (a great walking map of the Point for anybody interested in visiting) for help with details and locations on the old Newport houses. See also newportarboretum.org for several interesting "tree walks" of the area
