The Fitts Museum was once known as the Captain Jesse Eaton place. The original
one-room home (now the kitchen) and the loft above, was the first dwelling on
the site. The Federal style front section was added in about 1820. The home and
adjoining grounds were donated to the Town of Candia by the Fitts Family in 1901
to house a library and museum. The collection contains many artifacts passed
along to the museum by Candia residents of the 18th, 19th, & 20th centuries.
These include furniture, glass and china, musical instruments, paintings, books
and documents, tools, and items of everyday life through the generations.
