Court House - The Court House of East Greenwich was erected about the time when lotteries were reaching their height in the middle of the 18th century. In 1750 Kent County had been established and a system of courts established for the same. About 1750-1752 some gentlemen of East Greenwich began the construction of the court house but were unable to provide funds to finish it. In 1752 they requested and received permission to hold a lottery to raise funds to finish it. - East Greenwich
