The Elihu Akin House is a house in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, United States. It was built in 1762 by carpenter Jon Mosher. The house was later owned by the Akins, who were a prominent local family; Elihu Akin moved into the house after his own former home had been burnt in Grey's raid during the American Revolutionary War. At the start of the 21st century, the house was extensively renovated. The Dartmouth Heritage Preservation Trust and the town of Dartmouth now own the house.[1][2]
