The John Tillinghast House is an historic colonial house at 142 Mill Street (facing Touro Park) in Newport, Rhode Island. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, built in 1760 for John Tillinghast, a wealthy merchant. A high-quality example of academic Georgian architecture, the house was a (often temporary) home for a number of notable people during and after the American Revolutionary War. It was probably occupied by the Marquis de Chastellux, an engineer in the French Army while it was stationed in Newport, and by General Nathanael Greene, who hosted George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette on a visit to Newport. From 1821 to 1824 it was home to William C. Gibbs while he was Governor of Rhode Island.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for John Tillinghast House )〕 The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.〔 ==See also==
