Historic New England
From Salem Links and Lore
Both the Gedney House and the Phillips House in Salem are run by the group Historic New England.
As stated on their website, their mission is such: Historic New England is a museum of cultural history that collects and preserves buildings, landscapes, and objects dating from the seventeenth century to the present and uses them to keep history alive and to help people develop a deeper understanding and enjoyment of New England life and appreciation for its preservation.
Historic New England cares for and manages thirty-six historic museums and work with private property owners to protect and maintain their old and historic homes.
