Silas Smith House, Smithfield, R. I.

     These photos were taken by Steve Tudino of Smithfield in the early 1970s when the Smithfield portion of Interstate 295 was under construction.  The photos depict property at 206 Farnum Pike which today is at the intersection of Farnum Pike and Rt. 295 south.  

     According to the book “Historical and Architectural Resources of Smithfield, Rhode Island” published by the Rhode Island Historical Preservation Commission in 1992, (page 47), this property dates to the early 19th century and is believed to have been originally owned by Silas Smith.
