In 1795 Noah Curtis bought land of his father and uncle Adam and built a house now standing (1949) at N.W. corner of Franklin and Hillsboro Sts. Quincy. In 1797 he bought his uncles share of the old homestead but sold in 1799 to his brother in law John Glover. He was the first person in present Quincy to make shoes, beginning about 1790 and the business grew to large proportions before the Civil War caused a decline in the southern trade that he and his sons had built up. He was active in town affairs, was Town Treasurer, Representative in 1821, and on the building committee of the First Parish church built in 1828 at Quincy.
