Family Overview: Newport, Rhode Island
Founded in 1639, Newport soon became the most important port in colonial Rhode Island. It was used as a pirate base during the 17th and early 18th centuries, was the site of a major operation during the Revolutionary War, and later became a vacation spot for wealthy families from the mid-19th century on. The influx of summer residents led to the building of luxurious mansions and summer cottages, many of which still stand today.
