The Samuel Smith House is located in East Lyme, Connecticut. The house was built in 1700 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 4, 1979.
The house was built on land that had been granted to Thomas Bull, one of the founders of Hartford, for his service in the Pequot War of 1637. In 1692 Thomas Bull's sons sold the land to Nehemiah Smith, Jr. In 1698 Bull transferred it to his second son, Samuel, who built this house near the Niantic River.[2]
