Museum research record.

A museum in Woodbury, Connecticut, Glebe House Museum is filed here for what the record attaches to it. Museum research record. The archive files it under haunting reports. The dossier holds 1 reported claim, 1 legend and 1 documented fact, with the verified spine filed separately from the lore. The site is open to visitors. Names, dates and reports are filed together here, so the record stays honest about which is which.

Glebe House is the '83 — the 'March 25' that's the met, the 'first bishop' that's the elected. The 'Seabury' is the chosen — the 'Scotland' that's the consecrated, the 'American Episcopal' that's the born. The 'Marshall' is the rector — the 'nine children' that's the raised, the 'three enslaved' that's the held.
The 'secret' is the meeting — the 'Tory clergy' that's the suspected, the 'independence' that's the church. The 'Jekyll' is the garden — the 'only US' that's the designed, the '1923' that's the restored. Glebe is the first — the 'gambrel-saltbox' that's the roof, the 'birthplace' that's the claimed.
The file keeps Glebe House: the 1783 election, the Seabury first bishop, the Marshall household, and the Jekyll garden.
Glebe House is the archive's Connecticut file — the church's birthplace.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Glebe House is the archive's Connecticut file — the elected bishop's room.
A rectory keeps its vote — the file's suggestion being that Glebe's hold is the chosen: the 'Seabury' that's the first, the 'secret' that's the met, and the 'Jekyll' that's the gardened.

FILED CLAIMS — 1 on record, reported not verified
· [Documented legend] unspecified haunting: Tourism records a tradition of two alleged ghosts. Glebe House Museum in Woodbury, Connecticut curates the past professionally; the reports suggest some of the past curates back. 'Haunted Homes, Museums, and Theaters' preserves the telling; the record keeps it filed where it belongs, as lore. It's the kind of claim that outlives debunkings — too many witnesses, too few explanations.
