Dr. Jabez Campfield House, Colonial Georgian house in Morristown, United States

The two-story timber-frame residence at 5 Olyphant Place features traditional colonial architecture with symmetrical windows and a central entrance doorway.

Dr. Jabez Campfield, a Continental Army surgeon, purchased this house in 1765 and conducted medical treatments for soldiers during the Revolutionary War.

The Daughters of the American Revolution maintain the property as a museum, displaying period furnishings, medical instruments, and historical artifacts.

The house opens for guided tours led by DAR volunteers, allowing visitors to explore the medical practices and living conditions of 18th-century America.
