| TITLE | Salem, Oregon's first parsonage and the second oldest building in Salem |
| COLLECTION | Ben Maxwell |
| DESCRIPTION | This picture of Salem's first parsonage and the second oldest building in Salem, Oregon was taken in the early spring of 1937. The home was built in the fall of 1841 by Gustavus Hines and designed by Hamilton Campbell. It housed many of the Methodist missionaries and circuit riders. One noted resident was the Rev. David Leslie. The home was originally built where the water tower on the north side of the Thomas Kay Woolen Mill now stands (1992). The parsonage was moved to 1325 Ferry St. The parsonage is now located at the Mission Mill Museum complex. Notice the front porch, where long underwear and other clothes are hanging on the line, indicating that the residence was occupied in 1937. |
