Susannah Ingersoll (1783-1858), inherited what we now call The House of the Seven Gables from her parents, Captain Samuel and Susannah Hathorne Ingersoll, and remained there during her entire life.

Nathaniel Hawthorne visited Susannah's home quite regularly, being her second cousin. Many think her stories about Salem and their family made their way into his later writings.
