Pettaquamscutt Historical Society Museum

The Pettaquamscutt Historical Society Museum is a former jail building in Kingston, Rhode Island, USA, that houses the organization, a collection of fine Early American artifacts, and a history within the building's wall.
==History of the building==
''Pettaquamscutt Historical Society Museum'' was the location of the former old Rhode Island Washington County Jail.〔Hoxie, Louise M., The History of Peacedale, Rhode Island, 1968, Chapter 4, p. 32 Wakefield Printing Company for Pettaquamscutt Historical Society, RI〕 situated at the crest of the hill on Kingstown Road and Upper College Road at the University of Rhode Island southeastern entrance on Route 138. The front building was constructed in 1792 recognized by the National Register of Historical Places plaque, the rear building 1856 as the old jail, for the purpose of confining criminals who disrupted the society of old Washington County, with further redesigned 1861. One of many locals tradesmen, Amos Reynold Sweet 〔Joy, Robert, 1954, "Natural Bonesetters with special reference to the Sweet Family of RI", Bullentin of the History of Medicine, RI 28, No.3, p. 416-441.〕 set the rafters of the structure with local oakwood, and built walls of mica greywacke and Westerly RI granite stones, mortar and the iron cell gates. 〔McBurney, Christian M., A History of Kingston, Rhode Island, 1700-1900, Heart of Rural South County, 2004, Pettaquamscutt Historical Society,Kingston, Rhode Island〕 The jail was closed in 1956, and the building by 1958 housed the Pettaquamscutt Historical Society Museum. The front section of the building was redesigned in 1956 to establish the museum art collection, library and historical records, while the rear section of jail cells was refurbished and opened to the visiting public.
