Mal Great eye and here is the intro to the Nininger book where?you said has a refrence to a stone hitting a building from the Weston fall........

THE PATH BEHIND
?
In the little village of Weston, Connecticut, in the year 1807, a certain
Judge Wheeler stepped from his house early one December morning and
was surprised to see a great ball of fire come riding out of the northern
horizon. Dazzling, brilliant, sparkling, it nearly blinded him. He watched
as it passed behind thin clouds and advanced to a point almost overhead,
when it flashed three times and disappeared.

The judge was a learned, thoughtful man, and he was much interested
in this marvelous spectacle that was different from anything he had ever
seen before. He was very puzzled. It was like a "shooting star," only
greater in magnitude. While he stood pondering, a great noise broke upon
his ear.

It was like thunder, except that it grew louder and louder, grumbling
and roaring in a most frightening way, almost deafening. While this sound
still rumbled there came a second noise, a sizzling, whizzing buzz, as
though something were falling. A little stone struck a nearby building and
rolled away into the grass.

At least one stone hit a building during the Weston Fall according to
Nininger's, "Find A Falling Star" -- reference? the 1st page of Chapter
One ( The Path Behind ), 3rd paragraph, last sentence.
