Benjamin F. Wade House was the home of Civil War-era politician Benjamin Wade.[1] Before its demolition in 1968, it was located at Jefferson, Ashtabula County in Ohio.[2]

History

[edit | edit source]

The house was likely dated from the time of the Civil War, was a two-story clapboard structure with a mansard roof. It was the residence of US senator and abolitionist Benjamin Franklin Wade.[3] Later in the 20th century, it was owned by Jefferson Savings and Loan Company. The house was demolished in the summer of 1968 and its lot was later used as a parking for the company.[1]

The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965 but withdrawn somewhere between 1968 and 1970 for no longer meeting the criteria after being demolished.[1]
