Description

This yellow brick home occupies two lots placed on a hill. The home has a sophisticated entrance that can be seen from the street. Milner Harrison, a local store keeper, sold the property to his son David, a physician and flax manufacturer. David then built the current house between 1869 and 1874. One of his tenants in the home included Robert Eaton, a local grocer. Later additions were made to the rear of the house over the next twenty years however, the detailed woodwork adorning the house remained.

Hard copies of this photograph can be accessed at the St. Marys Museum & Archives.
