Mark Twain, one of Hartford’s most prominent past-residents, and one of the Red Chair's favorite authors, isn’t buried in Cedar Hill but his Gothic Victorian home on what was called Nook Farm is a living tribute to the man who said, “Travel is Fatal to Prejudice.” to which the Red Chair surely agrees.
It was an absolute pleasure for the Red Chair to visit Mark Twain's home where he wrote famous novels such as Huckleberry Finn and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer!
Not only on this visit did the Red Chair get the historical experience of one great man but Red was also able to visit the grave of Silas W Robbins himself among other celebrity graves such as Katherine Hepburn, Samuel Colt, and J.P. Morgan. Red says "Wethersfield, CT is just one of those places that has the historical charm and beauty of another time!"
