History edit

Zalmon Church served in a number of positions in the village of Saline, including Street Commissioner. He had this house constructed in about 1860. After Church's death in 1880, the house passed to his daughter, Mary Church Eaton. Eaton was the wife of prominent lawyer Peter M. Eaton, although it is unknown whether he ever occupied the house.[2]

Description edit

The Zalmon Church House is a two-story painted brick Italianate structure. It has a hipped roof with a single-story gabled wing. It has paired eaves brackets and segmental-arched lintels which are typical Italianate details. A front porch and small side porch are of more recent construction, but complement the architecture.[2]
