Sheldon Peck Homestead

355 East Parkside Avenue

Built in 1839, the Peck Homestead is now a historic museum and local landmark that hosts educational and outreach programs. In 2011, the home was inducted into the Network of Freedom, which verified it as a stop along the Underground Railroad. The home itself is open to visitors on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday afternoons. I’d encourage anyone with a desire to have a personal connection with history to visit this moving monument to our nation’s past.
