Original Description (transcribed from book)
Originally built in 1817 and extensively altered in the 1840’s, this house is one of the most interesting in the Ward. Begun as a federal farmhouse by William Young, it was purchased by Addoph [i.e. Addolph] Dill in 1844. His daughter, Mrs. Thomas Barham, lived in the house. It has a Greek Revival entrance and an Italianate cornice crowning the stuccoed facade.
Original Note (transcribed from book)
The Three Hundred Block of Marshall Street contains a large number of pre-Civil War houses, some of which have been altered in unusual ways.
