douging > Balch House, Cabot St, Beverly. John Balch was born in England in 1579 and settled briefly at Weymouth (Massachusetts) in 1623. He joined the Dorchester AdventurersÂ’ fishing colony on Cape Ann then moved to Salem with Roger Conant in 1626. He and his wife, Margaret, were original members of the First Church of Salem. Balch was one of the five original Old Planters and received a grant of 200 acres in present-day Beverly in exchange for his property in Salem. The Balch House was erected around 1639 and is the only house still standing that actually housed one of the Old Planters. The original structure was a one-room, story-and-a-half building, a portion of which still stands as part of the frame on the north end of the house.
