By 1986 this Greek Revival house was the only privately-owned pre-Civil War house still used as a residence in East Lansing. Horace Bigelow (c. 1822-1891) built it in 1849. According to the 1874 Atlas of Ingham County, Bigelow was “a farmer, stock and wool grower, and breeder of Essex hogs.” He was also a member of the Marble School Board. His daughter Jennie Kuhn (1853-1925), long-time secretary of the Marble School Board, lived in the house all of her life.
