Silas, a descendant of influential families, became a prominent figure in Sheffield, serving as a gentleman farmer, and deacon, and holding government positions, including County Treasurer. He played a pivotal role in the Stockbridge Convention of 1774, and Massachusetts call for freedom from English rule.Silas Kellogg’s legacy intertwines with the Sheffield Resolves, a document preceding the Declaration of Independence. Silas, a signatory to the resolves, exemplified his commitment to fighting British grievances. His sons, Asa and Silas Jr., actively participated in the War of Independence, embodying the family’s dedication to freedom.Despite Silas’s roles as a patriot, rumors suggest involvement in counterfeiting prevalent in Sheffield during the 1700s. Ruth Kellogg, Silas’s wife, met a tragic end at 96, succumbing to burns from a fireplace accident. Buried at Sheffield Plain Cemetery, both Silas and Ruth left a lasting imprint on American history.The Kellogg Farmhouse bears witness to this transformative period. Built in 1739, the homestead preserves the spirit of independence, reflecting the Kellogg family’s role in shaping America’s narrative of freedom. As custodians of this history, we, as first-generation immigrants, honor the Kellogg legacy, acknowledging its vital contribution to the founding of the United States. Every beam in this historic dwelling resonates with the enduring legacy of those who once called it home, inviting guests to marvel at the layers of history within.
