The Museum also owns and operates the Pelton-Fuller House. Situated next door to the museum this was the summer home of Alfred and Prim Fuller. Alfred, born in Nova Scotia, moved to the Boston area in his teenage years (as did many other Nova Scotians of his generation), and eventually became 'The Fuller Brush Man' with a business empire which was valued in the millions. His second wife, Mary Primrose Pelton, grew up in Yarmouth. This house was her family home. The house is furnished as the Fullers left it.21
