Built
in 1831, possibly one of the first homes built in Paris. It
was made of brick and wood. It was also the home of the first
county court of Monroe County and the building in which the
First Christian Church was organized in 1832. The old house
had 14 inch solid brick outside walls, with solid brick
division walls between rooms and was one and one half stories
high with six rooms. On the west area of the grounds an ice
house was built underground. Torn down and Senior Citizen
apartments built on site.
