The 1690 date needs citation. The nomination form cited earlier in the article describes the house as "early 18th century" "with some parts likely dating back to the 17th century." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Old houses (talk • contribs) 17:41, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a source for an earlier 1685 date: [1] Historic Buildings of Connecticut website retrieved on: 2021-04-16.Tomticker5 (talk) 15:41, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That source is itself unsourced. There are no known first period features in this house, so likely a 1730+ structure.Old houses (talk) 20:22, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And why is this the "John" Randall House? Not a famous person, so it's not really appropriate to name a house just for the male.Old houses (talk) 20:28, 2 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
