South County Museum, inspiring a better understanding of the
agricultural and rural village life in coastal Rhode Island
| The museum has become a popular attraction and
its exhibits have helped to keep alive Rhode Island's rural,
village, and maritime heritage, providing a fascinating glimpse of
the hand-craft technology and everyday life of the people of the
past two centuries. Owned by the town of Narragansett, 174-acre
Canonchet Farm has historical significance as the former home of the
12th governor of Rhode Island, Col. William Sprague, and his wife
Kate Chase, daughter of Salmon P. Chase, Abraham Lincoln's Secretary
of the Treasury. |
