Built by the Hon. William Crane, an early Sackville merchant, landowner, politician and partner of Charles Frederick Allison. The home was a wedding present for his daughter Ruth and Edward Cogswell and was known as Cogswell House. In 1895, it was renamed Marshlands after the beautiful Tantramar marshes by its new owner Henry C. Read, a stone merchant.
