Built in 1798 for Scottish fur trader Alexander Duff, the Duff-Baby Mansion was purchased in 1807 by the Hon. Jacques Baby, a highly influential politician. The Mansion was a site of the War of 1812 activities and hosted Shawnee leader Tecumseh in the dining room.
*The House is currently undergoing major restoration work to the exterior, windows, roof and heating and cooling system. This is a unique opportunity to see this historic gem during restoration.
