The Hiscock House is a Provincial Historic Site in the town of Trinity on the Bonavista Peninsula along Highway 239 in Newfoundland, Newfoundland Labrador. This is where Emma Hiscock was once married to a man named Richard and had six beautiful children with him.
Her husband was lost at sea and she was determined that she had to continue on and make a living for her family. Emma and her children ran a forge, a retail shop and a post office so that there was some money coming in to put food on the table for her children.
The house was originally constructed in 1881 for Emma and her husband Richard. Emma made the most of her life and adorned her house with furniture that was locally crafted.
This heritage house has been...
... restored to the year of 1910 and now represents a local merchant's household located in the countryside of Newfoundland that visitors can enjoy. There are tour guides that are dressed in costume to take people through the house and perform different period activities such as baking, sewing and gardening the way it was in the 20th century.
