"Father practiced law extensively or several years in Ticonderoga and Elizabethtown, then called “The Valley” by everyone. His closest friend in Ti was Joseph Weed, Esquire, whose store and place of business was at the top of Weedville Hill and his brick mansion (Pine crest) still stands there, formerly next to the Thompson Homestead. He, like all the Weed family, were and since have been engaged in saw mill activities on Lake George Creek, and I am informed that the mills were acquired by a member of the Count De Grasse family, famous in the (American) Revolution, the name De Grasse having been changed to Weed as the story goes. In Civil War times the principal physicians were Dr. (John) Smith and Dr. (William P.) Gannon." from Ticonderoga Historical Society.
