  9. Carolyn DeLoid. Carolyn and her husband in 1969 purchased 10.9 acres (North Duxbury, by the South River, on the Marshfield line) of the Joseph Peterson homestead which contained the home of Joseph Peterson, (b. ca. 1669). The home was date-boarded ca. 1695 by Duxbury Rural and Historical Society and still owned by the DeLoids in 2005. In researching the property Carolyn did extensive local research on the Joseph Peterson family. When the DeLoids purchased the farm it was called 'Mayflower Farm' and in the 1930's that was the only mailing address. In 2005 the DeLoids operate the Mayflower Tree Farm on the homestead.
