Historical Significance:

In February 23, 1934, one of the daughters of an old Victoria family and a group of her friends began the official steps to organize a Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. Mrs. Genevieve Power Stevenson was elected Organizing Regent, and on September 14, 1936, a Charter was granted. Built by her father in 1894. She donated this home to DAR,UDC and DRT who own it today.
