I read a book in the late 60s or early 70s about a young girl that went to live with someone (perhaps aunts). She went out for a walk and to a house down the street where she met a family that had children near her age. She visited them and but came to find out they were actually from the past

Another ghost story.  The “ghost” is also from the Revolutionary War.  The ghost was murdered for some reason and his body hidden (in a well, I think).  He befriends a human modern-day boy and together they solve the mystery of the ghost’s demise.

The first book is about a modern day boy who lives in New England.  Every time the fog rolls in, a mysterious village of Revolutionary War era appears in the woods.  The boy develops a relationship with the villagers and eventually realizes that his own father also had a similar experience.  Either the boy or his father was gifted a pocketknife by the ghost villagers. 

I read a book in the mid-1970’s about a large family. The babies all came from a plant in the backyard which grew pods. When a pod would get ripe, there would be a human baby inside.  I cannot remember if there was a science fiction element or not.  Does anyone remember this story?

1960’s/1970’s storybook- This was a short, very colorful story within a book of many stories. It was about a gnome/ old bearded man who scented and colored the flowers. One day he was carrying his glass bottles filled with his potions and they fell into the stream. Some fish tried to help him and there was a young girl/ fairy type character who was with him. Her named could have been Melinda or Belinda. There also may have been a part to the story about some matches getting wet.. It was written in a comic book strip style ( at least that is what my mother recalls.) I feel like the book was red and white and don’t remember the other stories.
