41. Sturgis Family House, c. 1840, c. 1980 - C Main street
Recent alterations to thisone-and-a-half-story two-bay frame house partially obscure its original Greek Revival style form. Its pedimented facade and low pitched roof are still evident behind the full width shed roofed porch and large wood shingles. The house has a side entrance flanked by a large multi-pane bow window. A single window occupies the tympanum.
In 1861, this dwelling was the residence of A. H. sturgis, who appears in the 1857 Register as the operator of a livery stable. C. H. sturgis was living here in 1881.
