    c1704 HISTORY: Hist of WA & Kent Co RI, film 806736 pg 272: "Ocean View - This place is situated a few miles NE of Watch Hill and not far from the extreme SE point of town and surrounded by beautiful county. The house is located on the site one time occupied by Ninigret, the Sachem Chief. The owner & proprietor of the resort is W. S. Gavitt who is descended from Ezekiel Gavitt (b. Dec 25, 1683, md Hannah Wilcox April 22, 1704) to whom Ninegret made a deed of this tract of land, about a mile square, receiving as pay therefor a jug of rum, some blankets, and a few trinkets on minor value, etc. The original house on this site was erected about the year 1704. It stood until after the great September gale of 1815 when it was torn down. Situated as it was on the old Post Road (then known as the King's Highway) it became a stopping place for the stage coaches running between Providence and New London, and as such was one of the early hotels of the county. After the bui9lding of the railroads, travel was diverted and from that time till 20 years ago it passed from public notice.
    As soon as the pleasure seeker and seaside visitor discovered the attractiveness of this site, it became again before the public, and now, because of the magnificent view it presents and of the delectableness of the air and surroundings of the good table, the rooms of this house are certain to become full every season. Mr W. S. Gavitt's father, Joseph Gavitt, was a major of a regiment in the War of 1812, and his grandfather, John Gavitt, was a Colonel in the Revolution.
